FamilyTreeWebinars.com unveils next generation of online genealogy education
New mobile-responsive site with new playlist, searching, browsing, and indexed jump-to features now available for all 275 genealogy courses
SURPRISE, Arizona; October 27, 2015—Millennia Corporation, a leader in family history software, today announced the release of a brand new responsive, mobile-friendly website for FamilyTreeWebinars.com, the leading source for online genealogy education. The new site makes it easy to find topics of interest among the now-275 courses in the library. Genealogists will now be able to watch courses on their smartphones, tablets or other mobile devices.
Other new features include:
  • A new search tool to easily find courses.
  • Internal indexing of each individual course to allow easy access and jump to specific topics.
  • A new resume watching feature that lets members pick up where they left off.
  • A playlist to bookmark courses for future review.
  • Presenter pages that feature the individual instructor's courses and materials.
"We're very excited to make learning more accessible to the genealogy community and our members," explained Geoff Rasmussen, host of the webinar series. "Genealogists will be able to find what they need more quickly and watch on the platform of their choice. And they won't have to worry about remembering where they left off. They can focus on increasing their genealogy skills and less on navigating the website."
Rasmussen will demonstrate the enhancements and changes during upcoming free live webinars which are typically held at 2pm eastern every Wednesday. Website users will benefit from the changes immediately and will appreciate the upgrades that were made specifically with them in mind.
The new website can be found at www.familytreewebinars.com
