Learn proofreading by distance learning

Proofreading Today is a ground-breaking proofreading course, which we believe to be the most up-to-date for aspiring freelance proofreaders.

It covers all the skills you’ll need, including proofreading for the web and dealing with electronic files.

It is the first course to cover the new paperlessproofs software and there is an entire module on the practical side of working as a proofreader.

This will help you find work and present a professional image to your clients.

What’s more, our pay as you learn scheme means that you can enrol one module at a time, paying for each one only when you are ready.

After completing the course, if you wish to set up as a freelancer, we will offer you a free website template with low-cost web hosting and a free entry in our new online directory.
