SLIG Academy for Professionals 2023: Writing and Documenting for Peer Review

Do you want to improve your writing? Maybe you want to prepare your research for peer review. Do you have a dream of seeing your work published in a peer-reviewed journal? Improve your writing skills with Writing and Documenting for Peer Review during SLIG Academy for Professionals 2023!


Writing and Documenting for Peer Review, coordinated by Karen Mauer Jones, CG, FGBS, FUGA, examines the peer-review process from several angles, arming students with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed.

Students will participate in several interactive learning experiences and homework assignments designed to prepare them for the peer-review process. Students will be given the opportunity to incorporate their own writing, prepared before the course begins. Activities include self-editing exercises, live-editing by a former National Genealogical Society Quarterly editor, colleague-to-colleague review between students, and writing groups.

Students will be expected to come to the course familiar with Genealogy Standards. They will learn to incorporate those standards into their writing.

Faculty includes:

  • Catherine B. W. Desmarais, CG
  • Paul K. Graham, AG, CG, CGL
  • Thomas W. Jones, PhD, CG, FASG, FUGA, FNGS
