The National Institute for Genealogical Studies has recently launched a new subject, Lecturing Skills Including Preparation, which teaches the skills needed to present genealogical-related lectures. This presentation is being done as part of the subject requirements and it is good to see a subject that has a practical component putting in active use the theory taught in the course.
The subject was written by well known presenter and technology guru Thomas MacEntee who will also be presenting on the Unlock the Past 4th cruise departing Sydney in February
