I am interested in becoming a professional genealogist. I heard that there are some correspondence courses offered by an organization in order to become certified. I had back surgery 3 months ago at age 19, and I've lost my college scholarships b/c I had to drop out to have the surgery. My husband and I can't afford to pay the tuition ourselves, and I love genealogy, and I would like to do this on a higher level. Can someone direct me to the website? Also, once you become certified, where do you work? Pardon my ignorance, please. I don't know of any genealogy societies in my area, other than Tap Roots. Thanks, Amy Brown
