ICAP Test

I recall from the ICAPGEN conference that there was some discussion about making the "Test" part of the accreditation process more accessible - perhaps even offering it on line.  I think the main…Continue

Thank you for the opportunity of attending these mentoring workshops. They are just what I need to get going on my AG.

I've done family research on and off for many, many years, but am not a great organizer so I've kept all my notes! I'm excited to know how to do the research efficiently - thanks so much for the workshop. I'm excited to dig in with expert help.
Many thanks.

We will be filming the first mentoring class in a studio this week. Once the film is edited and combined with the power point presentation we will post it on our website. Each following class will be posted several weeks after the scheduled presentation.

Kelly said that the info from the first class would be online soon. Do you know how soon yet and will it be the whole powerpoint presentation? I was one trying to take notes and was not able to do it quickly enough. I would sure like to have the info in written form.

As soon as I am aware that the international forms are online, I'll let you know. If somebody else sees them first, let us all know! :)

Having these accreditation mentoring classes available (year-long, fast track, and the seminar on 4/27) is remarkable. The fact that they're free is too good to be true! I am really grateful for them, as it will give me the final nudge I need to finish and turn in my application.

Will we be notified when the England experience file is available online, or do I just need to keep checking the website? I'm excited to get it!

I love the new Mentoring classes - I am so excited to complete my AG - Thanks for giving me the push to do this.

Glad to hear it! We want to help you complete the process.

Thanks for this opportunity. After attending the class, I suspect that I may be closer to accreditation than I thought. Now I just have to get all that research organized in a way that will facilitate my application.

ICAPGen offered 3 mentoring classes in the past 2 days with over 407 students registered. In the coming weeks registered participants will receive information about smaller sections divided according to experience and area of interest. We would like to provide support, encouragement and direction for all that are interest in pursuing accreditation. Thanks for your interest! You are an amazing group!
