Free Course starting Monday

[Aussie Bee]

Hi everyone

I have just joined the board - very impressive - looking forward to having a few chats and learning a great deal from your experiences.

I am just about to jump in and start researching my family tree and i am basically a complete novice so it should be a steep learning curve lol

Anyway i have found out about this feed course starting Monday 19th October - it may be helpful to a number of us newbies!

University of Strathclyde is hosting a free genealogy course soon via Genealogy Course - Research Your Family Tree Online - FutureLearn

heres a link to enroll

Welcome to Rootschat from me also -- I hope you enjoy it. It's a brilliant site with some really helpful members.

Well done on joining AND on providing US with information! (It's normally the other way round with beginners). You will enjoy your new hobby -- it comes with a health warning of 'addiction'!

Welcome.

Yes that course has been run quite a few times, I did it when it came out for the first time several years ago and found it helpful. I believe that they have added stuff since then.
