You can also get your ProQuest representative to give you one on one

pointers of how to teach it to others.

Explain what can be found, or what features HQ offers, versus Ancestry.
That's usually the top questions I get whenever I've taught it.
Particularly differences in census indexing.  Why Ancestry is better for
