Best Answer

You become certified in genealogy by applying to the Board for Certification of Genealogists. You submit work samples that demonstrate your knowledge of the genealogical research standards. That work sample is reviewed by a group of Certified Genealogists. If you pass the review you have the right to use Certified Genealogist (CG) or Certified Genealogical Lecturer (CGL) after your name. If you do not pass it, you do not have the right to use it.

A certificate from a College, University or Institute means that you have completed a course of study. It is academic in nature.

Certification is professional. It indicates that you have acquired expertise in a field, and that you have been judged so by a group of certifying professionals. In genealogy, that is the Board for Certification of Genealogist.
