Dear students,
As part of the agreements between SEAB and publishers for Open Access publishing, a series of webinars have been scheduled. The seminars are organized by the respective publishing houses in collaboration with SEAB, are aimed at researchers of all levels and – while the topic and approach may differ internally – primarily concern the publication process at the respective publisher.
Below you will find information about their conduct, as well as the registration forms. At the Wiley and Elsevier publishing houses, interested parties can choose to attend the date that suits them, as they have the same theme and content, while in the case of Springer, these are two different seminars. In all cases, a prerequisite for participation is your registration via the links you will find below.
