Fifth accreditation exam set for 3 May

Registrations for the 2014 accreditation exam are now closed, and the exam will take place on Saturday 3 May in all capital cities in Australia except Darwin.

This year, 102 people have registered, which is the highest number except for the first exam in 2009, when there were 171 candidates. Of this year’s 102 candidates, 23 will sit the exam in Canberra, also the highest number of Canberra participants since the first exam. It is also the second highest number of candidates in any of the centres (only Melbourne with 30 candidates has a higher number). Well done Canberra! And our best wishes to every candidate.

If all 102 of this year’s candidates pass (and we hope they all do), it will bring the number of accredited editors up to 370.
