Hello all,
I am new to this board, but not new to your website. I have come across it when doing research for my book. I need any information (links books etc..) on the type of formal training a royal would go through before or while reigning. Preferably, I am looking for Queen/Princess/Duchess etc.. I am looking for specific things they have to learn, even if it is in list form. Any thing you all could share would be helpful.

Thanks, I really like Princess Grace - IMO the epitome of royal grace and class. Hello all, I am new to this board, but not new to your website. I have come across it when doing research for my book. I need any information (links books etc..) on the type of formal training a royal would go through before or while reigning. Preferably, I am looking for Queen/Princess/Duchess etc.. I am looking for specific things they have to learn, even if it is in list form. Any thing you all could share would be helpful. Other than a Queen Regnant, I wouldn't think other female members of the royal family would have any specific training. It seems to me, that the role is what you make of it.

I guess for non-royals, they wouldn't know, as is demonstrated here. As a royal, I know the various training of Princesses and "to-be" Queen's.

When queencdj wrote her post, I assumed she was referring to European royalty. IMO, as far as I know, outside of a Queen Regnant, there is no specific training (i.e. guide books, royal waving classes, ribbon cutting 101). From what I've read about the Princess Royal, she learnt through experience, and some would say trial and error when it came to the media. I can't imagine the Princess needing any specific training, say education. She doesn't have any higher education and she's regarded as one of the hardest working royals. Today's Crown princesses seem to be a lot more accomplished and educated, but not because that was any criteria for it. They were accomplished well before their marriages. I don't think that any higher education will serve say Princess Beatrice in her role as a royal. She'll probably learn far more from her mother than anyone else. But maybe there are royal waving classes. If only a real member of a European royal house would fill us in...

This post deleted by Cinderella because it's against board rules to claim to be royal (even if you are royal, sorry, those are the rules).

Much of the knowledge many Royals have is used to help others. There are many examples of Royals doing incredible charity work, some in very dangerous regions of our world. They do this to bring attention to the needs of others and such work encourages people to seek solutions so their time is thus enhanced in humanitarian value.
Peace
Peace.

Hi Queencdj, in the books about Queen Victoria there is much discussion on the subject matter that her & her husband thought should be taught to their sons, particularly Albert Edward, the POW. Hope this is helpful , Rosie
