Full members who consider they fulfil these requirements should apply to the Accreditation sub committee through the national office of the guild by submitting a complete list of their credits as an editor, highlighting the titles they consider to be their best work. Provide three full examples of their work on DVD to assist in the selection process.
Applicants may be asked by the sub committee to submit further material if required.
Applicants should submit a short personal statement demonstrating their willingness and ability to advocate the role of editors in the industry and to advance the standards and recognition of the accreditation process.
Telephone contact details of two professional referees should be included with the application.
The fee for application is $25 to be paid at the time of application.
