PROOFREADING
AND EDITING COURSE
COURSE CONTENT
The Internet communication machine has created many opportunities. You can work from the comfort of your own home, for clients from all over the world. The course provided concentrates on proofreading in this medium ie documents received via e-mail or by disk. Hard copy proofreading is not covered on this course but we do itemise Proofreading Marks and Abbreviations for reference purposes. We concentrate on proofreading and editing for commercial clients, small businesses and the individual. The bulk of the course is information/reference based. The tutoring side of the tutorial comes into play during the exercises. The exercises are varied, encompassing many different projects eg proofreading web sites, extracts from novels, manuals, documents, etc. Feedback is given personally on every submitted exercise, together with appropriate advice. Additionally, every effort is made to provide ongoing support as and when required, even when you have completed the tutorial. We are always here to help. The course length, to an extent, depends on how much time you put into the course yourself. From experience, the average student takes a minimum of 10 weeks to complete the course. You'll be supplied with exercises until both parties are happy that you can undertake projects on your own. A certificate is issued upon successful completion of the course. So, to summarise, if you are someone that wants to develop a career as a freelance proofreader and/or editor, working from your pc at home, receiving projects via e-mail, then this is the course for you. AND To give you that helping hand in getting started as a freelancer, upon successful completion of your course you will be able to advertise yourself as a freelancer for one year on either www.freelance-proofreaders.co.uk or www.freelance-writers.co.uk for free!
