1. Why publish? How to choose your journal wisely?
2. How and whom to approach in Wiley for publishing your manuscript?
3. How to write a manuscript that sells?
4. Publication ethics: What are the rights and responsibilities of authors, editors, reviewers and readers?
The objective was to enable the participants to gain knowledge and skills in academic and scholarly publishing, to facilitate the participants’ understanding in the publishing processes therefore increasing their chances of getting published in international publications.
