SCCAPG President to Present on APG Chapters at PMC in Kansas City, 2018

Looking forward to presenting about maintaining and creating a chapter of APG at the upcoming PMC (Professional Management Conference) in October (I'll be speaking on Sat, 10/6). I've been gathering information from other chapters to learn how we might be doing some of the same things and learned that we are REALLY looking good! We host webinars, we do the Jamboree Research Assistance (which we did host in May/June this year, but forgot to blog about it), maintain a fairly active Facebook page, do panels for local societies to help answer questions about hiring or becoming a professional genealogist (next one is October 24 at 1pm in Banning - and we could use a couple more participants!), host an annual mini-PMC, and a few other things that let people know we are here. Many of our activities help our members fulfill their Continuing Education requirements, set by APG (in fact, if one were to attend the PMC and every webinar we offer, over half the Continuing Education hours would be taken care of).

So, if you will be in Kansas City (Oct 4-6), please come support our chapter (or your own, if you are part of one) and join in the discussion that should surely become the talk of the event!

SCCAPG to be at Jamboree 2017

Greetings, SCCAPG members and others!

We are so excited about again sponsoring the So. Calif. Gen. Soc. Jamboree Research Assistance rooms that we can't help bragging. This is our 8th year helping people knock down (or at least put a chink in) their brick walls. We are hoping our members who will be at Jamboree will stop by the help or sign up in advance at the volunteer sign-up page.



By the way, you can also GET help at this location! So check us out in the Tech Hallway. We open at 1pm on Friday June 9th and close at 2:30 on Sunday June 11th. 

And in the middle - on Saturday at 5:00 pm in that same room, we will have our open general meeting, with invitations issued to anyone who is interested in APG and our chapter. Spread the word!



Hope to see you there!

Jean Hibben
President, SCCAPG
