There are many groups in WA who provide [[education courses]] on how to go about genealogical or family history research and [[research methods]].

== Courses ==

The Western Australian Genealogical Society is a leader in this area and has a comprehensive [http://membership.wags.org.au/membership-mainmenu-44/education Education Programme] covering many aspects of research.

Many of the local studies libraries provide short courses on their own collections, and also have outside speakers on family history topics.

[[Country based societies]] run their own courses from time to time and draw on their local knowledge and talent as well as guest speakers.

== Talks ==

In addition to specific courses on genealogy and family history, there are various [[discussion groups]] in the Perth Metropolitan area, and also in country WA, who conduct [[informal talks]]. Some of these groups meet on a regular basis, others are more ad-hoc, but all provide an interesting mix of topics.

== Special Interests ==

[[Special Interest Groups]] provide a place to pursue specialist knowledge.

Many organisations hold courses on specialist topics, e.g. WAGS Special Interest Groups, WA Museums, The Royal Western Australian Historical Society, and others.
