This August, we launched the CIEP Competency Framework, a free tool designed to support editorial professionals' learning and development at every stage of their career. Now, we're inviting you to join us for a one-hour webinar to find out more about the framework, the process we went through to develop it, how you can use it to support your professional development and what's coming next. Join us at 2pm BST on Thursday 4 September to find out more.

Join us on 11 September from 2.00 to 3.00pm BST to hear from Katherine Morton as she shares her tips for increasing copyediting productivity. During the session, Katherine will outline acceptable copyediting productivity rates, illustrate how to measure your productivity, and provide her top 10 tips for increasing your productivity.

Building your own business from scratch is scary. There is a ton of advice about how to do it, but almost nothing at all warns you about how it’s going to feel on a day-to-day basis. Defining your success, understanding your worth, wearing all the hats — waking up at 3 am and asking the darkness, What on earth have I done? This session is for editors who have been in business for a couple of years or are thinking of making the leap from regular employment. Join us on Thursday 2 October from 2.00 to 3.00pm BST for a webinar and guided discussion delivered by editor and book coach, Ruth Bullivant.

If you’re an editor who regularly uses the Chicago Manual of Style in their work, you will probably be aware of the new edition of this classic manual, which was released last September. This edition contains a few important departures from previous editions that have implications for copyeditors and proofreaders, which this webinar intends to cover. Join us on Tuesday 7 October from 2pm to 3pm BST to hear from academic copyeditor and self-declared Chicago fan Marieke Krijnen to learn what to look out for in the new edition!

This webinar will provide an introduction to the world of medical journals. If you're thinking about changing your line of work and doing some editorial work for a medical journal, or you'd just like to learn about something different, this session is for you. Join us on 27 November from 2.00 to 3.00pm BST to hear from Syba Sunny, former medical doctor and now editor at a medical journal, who will give us an overview of how medical journals work.
