NGS developed this new course to take genealogists step-by-step through the fundamental concepts of researching family history. The Foundations in Family History course is ideal for the DNA test taker who wants to create a family tree to connect with matches; the genealogy enthusiast who wants to take their family history knowledge to the next level; or the librarian or archivist who wants to learn more to be able to assist their patrons. It will also be attractive to the self-taught family historian who wants to fill any gaps in their knowledge and introduce them to records they are not familiar with. It was developed to give each family historian a solid foundation in the research skills needed to find and evaluate records for their family and to build their family tree—generation by generation.
