Join us for a focused look at ICAPGen accreditation—what it is, why it matters, and how it applies to your professional work.

Many Mid-Atlantic-area genealogists already have the deep knowledge and research experience that ICAPGen requires—yet only a small number have pursued the Mid-Atlantic credential. This session will demystify the process and show how accreditation can validate and strengthen the skills you’ve been developing for years.

Our panel includes:

  • Michelle Tucker Chubenko, AG®, AGL™, a New Jersey-based professional accredited in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region

  • Eva Holmes, CG®, AG®, accredited in the U.S. New England region and based in Maine

  • Karen Kowallis, AG®, ICAPGen Commissioner, accredited in England, and based in New York

  • Laurel Haas, of Greene Roots LLC, based in Rhode Island and pursuing accreditation in the U.S. Upper South

Whether you’re curious about the process, actively working toward a credential, or just want to better understand how ICAPGen fits into the professional genealogy landscape, this session is for you.

Email MidAtlanticAPG@gmail.com for more information.

APG is pleased to announce the next webinar in our "New Voices" series for members. Join us on 16 November 2025 from 3:30–5:00 PM for Coast Salish: A Pacific Northwest Sea of Opportunities with presenter Masen Brandon, sponsored by APG’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee. This event is free and open to APG members only.

The Salish Sea region of the North American Pacific Northwest hosts the land of numerous Coast Salish nations. As far as canoes can paddle, opportunity abounds. Relations span borders, languages revive and restrictive laws wane, despite interference from outside governments causing Coast Salish nations intense strain. Families made hard choices when aggressors blighted opportunities. Many historical narratives of the Pacific Northwest center colonial perspectives, eschewing Indigeneity.

This deficit means we must bring ancestral voices to the limelight. How can I prevent harm when researching these mighty cedar branches? Who can I learn from? What contexts included Coast Salish people in records? What value does genealogy have? Join us for this enlightening and thoughtful presentation.

About New Voices
APG's New Voices Series was created to diversify the narrative in genealogical research by providing a platform for emerging voices in the field, particularly those focusing on under-represented communities. The goal is to create a series of educational webinars which aim to enrich the knowledge base of APG members, fostering a broader understanding of historical and cultural issues impacting genealogical research. The New Voices series presents views of speakers that are not necessarily the opinions of APG. APG members can watch previous New Voices webinars in the APG Webinar Library (login required).
