Continuing your genealogical education is essential to expanding and improving your research skills. Fortunately, we are presented with educational opportunities in the form of genealogy conferences. These can take the form of in-person, face-to-face on-site conferences or as virtual, on-line conferences accessible by using video tools like Zoom (https://zoom.us/).

Whether you attend by yourself or with other genealogy friends, it is important to take advantage of every opportunity to focus on your learning experience. This can take place in lectures, panel discussions, the exhibit hall, mealtimes, planned social events, and even the most casual conversations. You can learn from other people at every turn.
