A Message from the President

We’re thrilled to welcome you to the ICAPGen blog relaunch! It’s exciting to reconnect and share what’s been happening within our community of Accredited Genealogist® Professionals and aspiring genealogists.

The past few years have been a time of growth and renewed energy for ICAPGen℠. We are proud to welcome 86 newly Accredited Genealogist® professionals since January 2020, reflecting their dedication to excellence and the strength of our mentoring and testing programs. 

Our ICAPGen Study Groups continue to thrive as participants work diligently toward accreditation. And our new ICAPGen Connect gatherings have created meaningful opportunities for AG® Professionals to share ideas, collaborate, and support one another. 

Some other highlights include:

• Added new accreditation regions: African-American, Argentina-Uruguay, Brazil, Canada-Ontario, Canada-Quebec, Canada Western Provinces (Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Saskatchewan) Chile, Centra America (Cost Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua), Chile, Columbia-Panama, Czechia, Germany East, Germany Northwest, Germany South, Luxembourg, Peru, Slovakia, Venezuela
• Created the Accredited Genealogist Lecturer^TM credential
• Represented at conferences such as RootsTech, AAHGS, APG PMC, IAJGS, NGS, NERGC, OhioGS

We’re glad you’re here—and even more excited for what’s ahead. This blog will once again serve as a space to celebrate achievements, share insights, and inspire professional growth.

Welcome to the conversation!

Warm regards,
