Publishing Basics: Discount program for booksellers and customers

Publishing Basics is the flagship course of Agate Publishing Academy, a comprehensive introduction to the world of publishing, featuring:
  • 8 online modules full of interactive activities and simple self-assessments, presented in a sequence that corresponds to the progress a book makes through the publication effort, from acquisition to sales
  • 1-hour live video discussion seminars following each of the 8 modules, each of which is shaped by questions supplied by learners and led by an experienced industry professional, scheduled in the evenings for the convenience of learners
  • A certification earned by all learners who complete the course, called the Publishing Basics certification
