Learn proofreading skills from home with Proofreading Today - the first distance learning course to incorporate paperlessproofs

Proofreading Today is a ground-breaking distance learning course which will help you gain the professional skills and knowledge you need to become a proofreader.

Proofreading is the process of checking that a document laid out for print or the web is what has been asked for by the author and editor. The proofreader is responsible for the final checks before a publication is printed or put online.

The work demands high levels of concentration and a firm grasp of language, grammar, spelling and punctuation. More than that, proofreading requires specialist professional skills, knowledge and judgement - attributes that Proofreading Today will teach you.

We have developed a range of short courses in proofreading, editing and grammar, which we can run at your premises or at a venue of your choice.

Copy-editing for Publishers
This intensive two-day course gives publishing staff a thorough introduction to copy-editing. You'll learn how the copy-editor fits in to the rest of the publishing process, how to mark up manuscripts correctly and how to create style sheets.

Editing and Writing for the Web
Effective online text has to communicate quickly and clearly, and make best use of the capabilities and constraints of the medium. This course will help you structure your web material, refine your words and make best use of images.

Editing in a Business Environment
This course will show you how to edit and refine your organisation's documents so that they are well-structured, fit for their target audience and free from spelling, grammatical or factual errors.

Know Your Grammar
Grammar is a simple system for communicating clearly, but it's one where people are often unsure. This practical grammar course is taught by a working editor and provides a quick revision of the principles of grammar as they apply today.

Legal Proofreading
We can deliver a one-day course that draws on decades of experience. In book publishing, proofreading has been developed and refined to the extent that it is virtually a profession in its own right.

Proofreading for Publishers
This practical proofreading course will teach publishing staff the fundamentals of proofreading, including how and why it differs from editing, how to mark up proofs correctly and how to stay within budget.

Proofreading in a Business Environment
A fast-moving proofreading course where you will learn how to check documents and proofs of all kinds, including brochures, publicity material, newsletters, reports and emails.
