ARE YOU SEEKING CREDENTIALS IN IRELAND AS A PROFESSIONAL GENEALOGIST?

Some of the Association’s Members and Affiliates who attended a recent AGI event held in Dublin.

Accredited Genealogists Ireland (AGI) will be hosting an Open Day and Workshop in Dublin on Saturday, 7th October, 2023. Whether you are already practising as a professional genealogist or just thinking about a future career in genealogical research, this Open Day and Workshop will be relevant to you.  It will provide information on credentials for professional genealogists, on the AGI Affiliate programme, and on the process of seeking accreditation as a Member of AGI. The venue is Wynn’s Hotel, 35-39 Abbey Street Lower, North City, Dublin 1, D01C9F8, on Saturday 7th October 2023, 10.00am until 5.30pm.

AGI is the accrediting and representative body for professional genealogists in Ireland and was founded in 1986.  Admission to membership is based on the recommendations of an independent Board of Assessors.  The credential for membership of AGI is open to professional genealogists based anywhere on the island of Ireland who primarily research in Irish sources and who are not engaged in full-time work outside of genealogy.

The cost to attend the day-long event is €35 per head which includes Tea/Coffee break, and a light lunch.  All attendees will receive an AGI Welcome Pack on arrival. Payment must be made at time of registration.

The Itinerary will include talks by AGI members in the morning, with particular emphasis on the importance of report writing in professional genealogy. Following lunch, the Workshop will take place in the afternoon followed by a Fun Table Quiz with prizes.
