These two courses bundled together form a comprehensive training program for editors and writers who want to hone their skills and edit strategically instead of just tactically. It’s developed in partnership with the editing pros from the ACES: The Society for Editing .
You will have one year to complete all the self-directed course material.
All live sessions will be recorded and available for replay. However, submitting homework assignments is required to successfully complete the course.
You can begin the self-directed course content as soon as you enroll, but you must attend the live online group seminar to receive the certificate.

Tune in for live instruction each Wednesday at 3 p.m. Each lesson is one hour, and you can expect to spend an additional 2-3 hours per week exploring the course content, completing and assignments, reviewing feedback and discussing homework in the class forum.
