Certified Genealogist? I saw a post where someone had asked about how much they could charge for Genealogical services and one of the responders to the question had suggested to go to the Association of Professional Genealogists, bcgcertification.org or ICAPGen.
After reading through the above webpages, one of the things I found out was that you could read a book called Professional Genealogy: A Manual for Researchers, Writers, Editors, Lecturers and Librarians by Elizabeth Shown Mills and in looking for information about the book, I found that Amazon.com (which is usually one of the cheapest places to find used books) had a used copy for $130. (I'm also sure I could probably check out the book at the local library, but I prefer to own my own copy so that I don't have to keep renewing the checkout date since it usually takes me a bit of time to read a book.)
I know that many websites have resources within their websites, but are there any TOTALLY FREE classes online on Genealogy or websites that would teach more in-depth about it? What about FREE e-book websites?
I am just curious, as I want to try to learn as much as I can (I have already read 'Genealogy For Dummies', btw).
Anyone?
