This year’s Association of Professional Genealogists (APG) Professional Management Conference (PMC) will be held September 19-21, 2019, at the Hotel RL in Salt Lake City. The PMC is a great way for professional genealogists (and those transitioning) to learn from experts on topics ranging from owning/running a business to advanced methodology. It’s also a great place to meet colleagues and network.
This will be my first PMC, and I can’t wait. I’m also looking forward to celebrating APG’s 50th anniversary! Here are some of the sessions I plan to attend:
- Keynote: “Improving Our Success Rate in Solving Client Problems,” Elizabeth Shown Mills
- “Genetic Genealogy Mystery Escape Room,” Paul Woodbury
- Luncheon: “Being Solo – Self-care for the Ups and Downs,” Janice Lovelace
- “Can I Really Make Money as a Professional Genealogist?,” Melissa Johnson
- “Genetic Genealogy Case Studies: Choose Your Own Adventure.” Paul Woodbury
- “ABCs of Accounting for Your Genealogy Business,” Mary Kircher Roddy
- Roundtable: “Certification: The Line Between Pass and Fail,” Judy Russell
- “Writing, Documenting, and Publishing Conclusions Incorporating DNA Test Results,” Thomas Jones
- Luncheon: “Every Day is a Winding Road: Adventures in a Genealogy Career,” Kenyatta Berry
- “Illegitimacy, Desertion, and Divorce: Using Indirect Evidence to Find Nicholas Mauer,” Karen Mauer Jones

I also plan to spend a little time at the Family History Library.
