Dear Students,
I'd like to introduce you to our popular Copyediting Certification Course. My name is Kim Catanzarite, and I will be leading the upcoming ten-week course. Here you will study the skills necessary to become a successful copy editor. You will learn the basics and a whole lot more, and you will put them all into practice.
Practice is one of the keys to becoming a capable copy editor. The grammar exercises you practice with and quizzes you take here—as well as the writing and self-editing you do—will not only help build your knowledge and skills, but will also point to your strengths and weaknesses so you’ll know how to better spend your time in your studies.
This is a comprehensive course, so we will touch on the skills necessary to do this job and also the ins and outs of being a copy editor and how copy editors fit into the publishing world as a whole.
If you have any questions along the way, great! I’ll do my best to answer them. Get ready to immerse yourself in all things copyediting!
