Was A$697

• The communication of ideas and research is a fundamental skill for academics and researchers. What is often overlooked is that while writing comprises one set of skills, editing comprises another distinct set.
• Academics are constantly required to not only edit their own work for dissemination and publication but also assist their students and colleagues with manuscripts, papers and grants. Though there are plenty of opportunities to hone writing skills, academics often lack the specific training needed to edit efficiently and effectively.
• The aim of this course is to provide academics and postgraduate students with both the core skills needed to edit and format scholarly writing and an understanding of editing principles and best practices (including how to give useful and actionable feedback to students and colleagues).
