Who should attend?
The Manuscript Central User Conference is tailored to managing editors, administrators and publishers who spend a part of their day, every day, working in Manuscript Central. After an intensive day of training and product review, you will be able to answer questions that users typically have regarding their duties and assist your user population in performing their specified tasks within Manuscript Central.

As a journal editor/admin or publisher, you'll be able to choose the track that's most relevant to you and network with your peers and ScholarOne employees. You'll also gain insight and be invited to provide feedback on future Manuscript Central features and releases.
