Description:
In this course, take your genetic genealogy research skills to the next level as you pursue genealogical proof with genetic evidence. Learn advanced analysis techniques for ethnicity, Y-DNA, mtDNA, X-DNA, and autosomal DNA. Discover how to effectively organize DNA test results and leverage key methodologies to overcome the challenges inherent in historic, endogamous, or otherwise challenging research contexts. Explore more advanced analyses including coverage analysis, chromosome mapping, segment analysis, inferred mapping, and more.
Prerequisites: Completion of an introduction to genetic genealogy course from a genealogical institute (IGHR, GRIP, SLIG, TIGR) or through a university course (BYU, BYU-Idaho, Salt Lake Community College, Boston University Certificate). Completion of other courses or equivalent experience may be approved by the coordinator.
