November 15, 2017Application Deadline December 31, 2017
Ancestry recently announced that it is now accepting applications for the AncestryProGenealogists Scholarships to genealogical institutes, established to “foster and support professional genealogists in their ongoing development efforts.”
“The AncestryProGenealogists Scholarship Program will provide
four scholarships that will cover tuition, round-trip standard economy airfare
(Ancestry may substitute appropriate ground transportation for awardees who
live within 300 miles of the applicable institute), and hotel expenses for one
individual each to attend one of the four institutes listed below. The scholarships will be awarded to qualified
applicants who demonstrate a commitment to genealogy as a profession, a desire
for professional development, and the ability to communicate that commitment in
writing.”
