The Manitoba twig of Editors Canada is exploring the idea of setting up a study
group in fall for people interested in working towards the certification exams.
Stay tuned!

Hi Sarah,
I haven't taken an exam, but I attended a workshop on the exam process at an
Editors' Canada conference.
Pass rates vary from around 20% to 50%. If you do fail you get a
pass/fail--no explanations.
I recently learned you can apply to test out the exams, and though you don't
get certified, you get feedback. (I believe it's free, but you have to wait 2
years before actually taking the exam)
Also, they have courses (through Queen's) to help with preparation. Editors
Canada could answer any questions.

Subject: [mea] Canada Editors Certification
Hi fellow editors,
I was wondering if anyone here has done any of the Canadian editor
associations certification tests, and if they could share the experience with
me?
Thanks
Sarah
