Syllabus
This month (thru Sep 30), FamilyTree Webinars is offering all month several new webinars for free viewing before going behind their paywall. (However, their paywall is only $50/yr, and they have over 2,000 webinars with associated syllabuses in their library, over 250 of which relate to DNA – a bargain.)
I just watched this one by Richard Hill. Richard’s impetus was finding his own biological parents. However, this presentation is a great seminar useful for anyone trying to learn about DNA testing. He is slow and methodical and has a well laid out presentation on one topic leading naturally to the next. This is absolutely the best presentation I have seen for any person new to DNA testing and is NOT just limited to adoptees searching for their birth parents.
If you have either avoided learning about DNA because of the steep learning curve or would just like to see a very organized presentation of how all the testing fits together and where it can help, this is a great webinar to watch.
It was great, so bad I miss it.
I think that adoptees will get some great information from Richard, thank you!
I love the webinars because I am new to genealogy and they are really helping me to understand what I need to do to locate my family members.
Good speaker Clear and precise
For a newbie to DNA, this webinar was very informative and easy to follow. Thank you.
A good webinar consists of many elements, such as an excellent knowledge of the matter, educational skills, understandable common language, low speed of speech, good slides, a good syllabus, and many others. Richard meets all criteria. Well done. An example for many others that meet only some, …
Very interesting. I appreciate that he spoke in layman’s terms. I understood it all! Thanks.
