We hope your summer is going well! This month we’ve got more fascinating free online sessions lined up for you, from protecting your family history research from the zombie apocalypse to a tour of MyHeritage’s photo features with our Director of Product Management.
Before we give you the schedule, we’d like to encourage you to tell us what topics you’d like to hear about in our online live sessions in the future, and what speakers you’d like to hear from. Our free, live webinars are a fantastic opportunity to hear from some of the world’s top experts in family history, genealogy, and DNA from the comfort of your home and completely free of charge. So tell us what you’d like to learn about and who you’d like to hear from next!
Facebook Live Sessions
No advance registration is required for these sessions: you can join them straight from our Facebook page. Simply visit the page when the session is scheduled to start, and look out for the live video broadcast at the top of the feed. We recommend following our Facebook page to get a notification when we go live. You’ll be able to ask questions in the comments, and the speakers will respond to them at the end of the session.
Can’t make it to a live session? No worries — you can still enjoy all recorded FB Live sessions in the Videos section of the MyHeritage Facebook page.
