Edit Like a Pro

Cover of Edit Like a Pro, Third Edition by the Editors' Association of Canada

Edit Like a Pro is a series of four workbooks published by Editors Canada to help editors assess and improve their skills through hands-on editing practice. Edit Like a Pro, based on the 2016 edition of Professional Editorial Standards, replaces the Meeting Professional Editorial Standards series, which is based on the 2009 edition of Professional Editorial Standards.
