Certified Saskatchewan Researcher


This course provides candidates with in-depth knowledge about further record sources of value to the family historian. The course consists of a classroom session plus ten self-directed assignments that require actual visits and use of records in such agencies as the Land Titles Office and the Surrogate Court. Part of each assignment is a report of what the records are, why they were created and how one would use them to benefit a research problem. Each candidate is expected to donate twenty hours of volunteer time to helping family researchers in the SGS Library. Another expectation is that they write a major article on one facet of research which will be published in the Saskatchewan Genealogical Society Bulletin. Each candidate prepares their own research guides for each of the ten assignments.
