Abstract:
Manuscript acceptance for publication is enhanced by following simple but important steps.
First steps include reviewing relevant literature to determine timeliness and literature gaps, creation of paper outline and journal selection. Secondly, successful manuscript publication requires meticulous paper preparation and presentation, aligning paper with targeted journal aims and scope, as well as closely following journal author guidelines.
Paper title and abstract create a first impression so must be error free and reflect focus and content of paper. In addition to carefully proofreading your paper for grammar and readability, securing a professional editor to copy-edit your paper may prevent unnecessary interruptions in the review process.
Learning objectives:

1. Participants will identify steps necessary for developing a manuscript for publication
2. Participants will familiarize themselves with the steps for submitting a manuscript to publishers
