NEW! We’ve put together bundles of inexpensive, convenient recorded webinars and self-paced courses that are designed for editors who are launching freelance careers or exploring new areas of specialty. Check out our Paths to Freelance Editing Careers.

Traditional Courses

The EFA’s traditional courses take place over a set number of weeks (usually four to six) and are asynchronous. You’ll never need to be at your computer at any specific hour, but you will have weekly deadlines for submitting homework assignments. Traditional courses include direct interaction with your instructor, as well as a student forum. These EFA classes are a great fit for you if you want in-depth feedback and peer support and can dedicate at least three to six hours per week while class is in session.

If the course you’re interested in is completely booked, fill out this form to join the waitlist.

Upcoming Webinars

Live webinars are a great way to learn something new or refresh your knowledge at a low cost and time commitment. All EFA webinars are either 60 or 90 minutes long and include a live Q&A session for attendees. Past webinars are available for immediate purchase here

Please note that all webinar times are given in Eastern Time. 

Self-Paced Courses

The EFA’s self-paced courses are a low-cost way to learn new skills on a flexible timeframe. You’ll receive full access to your course—including in-depth lessons, self-assessments, handouts, and plenty of additional resources—for an entire year. As an added bonus, our self-paced courses include regular live Q&A sessions with your instructor, making them unique in the marketplace.
