2018 IPEd accreditation exam registration closing this week

Australian editors have just under a week left to register for the 2018 Institute of Professional Editors (IPEd) accreditation exam.

This year, the accreditation exam will be held on Saturday, 19 May in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth, and will be offered in an onscreen format.

The three-hour, open-book exam assesses candidates’ knowledge and use of the Australian standards for editing practice, and tests a wide variety of editorial skills.

Registration for the exam is open to anyone but it is recommended for suitably qualified editors with at least three years’ full-time editing experience or equivalent.

The final date for registration and payment of the exam fee is Sunday, 22 April 2018.

Further information about the exam, including fees, a sample exam and registration forms can be found here.
