The American Copy Editors Society (ACES) is the United States’ leading organization of editing professionals, educators, and students. They are dedicated to improving the quality of the written word and the working lives of editors. They set standards of excellence and give a voice to editors in journalism, government, business, and beyond through top-notch training, networking, and career opportunities.
During these difficult COVID-19 times, when resources and training are incredibly valuable, ACES is offering training webcasts at no cost, through 31 July 2020.
