I recently completed the Masterclass Certificate in Editing and Publishing (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was a valuable learning experience. As a South African writer and editor, I was looking to enhance my skills in publishing and learn more about the industry. The course provided a detailed overview of the publishing process, from manuscript submission to production and distribution. I appreciated the emphasis on editing and proofreading, as well as the discussion of different genres and formats. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, and the instructors were responsive to questions and feedback. One area for improvement could be more focus on African publishing contexts, but overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others in the industry.
