When I become a genealogist, who will employ me?
Once you become a genealogist, there are a range of avenues you can pursue. You can become a record agent and join one of the various professional organizations such as AGRA, or alternatively become an independent researcher on the National Archives list. You could always apply to an archive and use your genealogical skills to help other people undertake their research or see if there are any jobs in organizations such as the Society of Genealogists, Federation of Family History Society, and so on. Alternatively, you can then pass on your own skills and start setting up teaching courses in genealogy, too.
