The Board of Trustees and Management of the Society of Book and Magazine Editors of Nigeria (SBMEN) are proud to announce its first editing workshop for the year themed: “Editorial Practice and Project Management.” The training is scheduled to be held from 26 – 27 February, 2022.
This training is the first part of SBMEN’s annual courses to provide capacity building and increase the proficiency of editorial professionals. According to the Executive Director, Anwuli Ojogwu, “With more people becoming interested in editing and content development, it is important to equip them with the skills to have a successful career. The skills of an editor are universal, in-demand and always applicable in other careers beyond publishing.”
This course is the first of its kind focused on the big picture of managing editorial tasks. It requires a combination of creativity, planning and technical skill. The course will explore topics from the scope of managing editorial projects to translating a client’s brief to action, and lots more. Budding and aspiring editors and content developers will benefit from this course and professional editors can refresh their knowledge.
It will be facilitated by accomplished editorial experts including Adebukola Bassey, Founder and Editor of BMS Editors, and Anwuli Ojogwu, ED and co-founder of SBMEN.
Interested editors and writers are encouraged to apply.
