You’ll need an internet connection and an updated Zoom app for this virtual experience.

Our sole purpose is to teach and inspire YOU to use DNA to explore your roots. We believe you can do it, and that there is power in making your own DNA discoveries. We’ve been focused on this mission for 10 years, which experience has made us a leading global genetic genealogy education company.
and a world-renowned genetic genealogy educator. I teach people how to use DNA testing to learn about their families. I believe that discovering your family story is so empowering! Learning it makes you stronger, more rooted, more connected, more confident. You can do it–and I can help you, just as I’ve helped thousands of people around the world.
“This webinar was very helpful to me because I would find my self thinking after doing dots, and looking at different places in a tree, Cm’s and other clues, now what? How do I confirm what I think I know or suspect? But this webinar really helped explain how I can confirm things a bit better. Of course, we have to do the genealogy and sometimes I’d get sidetracked there and forget to come back and verify things. Having the worksheet will help me keep track of where I am. I can even write “doing genealogy process” as my current step and if I have or have not updated the relationship and answered the ‘do I know this person?’ It just seems like a great way to keep track of where I am in the process, or plan. Great webinar as always. Always learning something new!”

“Diahan, we are only 20 minutes into this session and OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!! This is SOOOOOOO useful to me to learn from an expert - I'm keeping up with your insights - glad that I can re-watch later. The knowledge you are sharing is WAYY worth it! What a great session!”

“The DNA Skills Workshop is a great course to take if you want to learn more about how to use DNA in your family history research. I went from feeling so overwhelmed with all the DNA matches and what to do with them, to feeling more confident in what I can do to separate them in groups and to understand the values of centimorgans and how they can help me determine possible relationships. It is a hands-on workshop and the material is presented in a fun understandable format.
The price does seem expensive, but all the work that Diahan and her coaches do put in to help each individual person in the Workshop, was well worth paying for.”

No. We will provide you with a made-up match list you can practice with (before you bring your fresh skills and insights back to your own).
That's ok, you can still participate in the Workshop! If you're not able to print the worksheets, just have paper handy to DIY them.
Don’t worry–we’ve got you covered. You will still receive the worksheets and a recording of the event with all the instructions, so you can follow along and learn during the week following.
