MyHeritage Online Events for February

It’s been an incredibly busy month at MyHeritage with some amazing new feature releases! As always, we have a fantastic schedule of online events planned for the month ahead, with a special focus on exploring the new features and updates at MyHeritage.

Our free, live webinars feature top experts in genealogy, family history, and DNA speaking on a wide variety of useful and relevant topics. Thanks to the live format, you can ask questions and interact with the lecturers in real time. Even if you can’t make it to the live events, you can still enjoy all recorded FB Live sessions in the Videos section of the MyHeritage Facebook page, and many of the Ask the Expert sessions are later made available for free viewing on the MyHeritage Knowledge Base.
