Publishing Contracts

PUBLISHING CONTRACTS "A much deeper understanding of the terms used within contracts. The teaching was excellent."
Limelight Management delegate
Do you know exactly what you've agreed contractually with your author or publishing partner?

If not, would you like to?

This is an essential course for all those concerned with author-publisher and co-publication contracts.

And that's not just the contracts department.

The publisher, editor, agent and permissions people all need to understand the agreements that affect them.

This is your chance to examine different kinds of publishing contract in detail.

The focus is on a print, rather than a digital, setting, and the aim is to give you all the tools you need to assess current and future agreements.

You'll need a solid grounding in copyright, publishing rights and moral rights before attending this course. Staying Within the Law can provide this.
