Editorial process

Behind the scenes

Creating a blog isn't easy, and it isn't quick. (At least not if you want to do it well.) At 澳门天天彩开奖记录, we strive to create content that is relevant, informative and inspiring to our audience of lifelong learners. And while all that sounds good on paper, the process is admittedly involved. Here, we pull back the curtain on how we do what we do.听

The big idea

To be fair, there are a lot of big ideas, and they come from all over the University. We consider everyone, from ways our degree programs can serve as stepping stones for reaching educational goals, to career advice to help in the job hunt, to alumni stories that inspire everyone to keep striving.听

Then we make sure we commit ourselves to creating the highest quality content possible. How? Read on.听

The process


Qualified authors

Our robust network of professional writers and industry veterans is just that: real people who have honed their craft over the course of years. Some are leaders in their fields, others are expert researchers. By cultivating strong writers from diverse backgrounds, we can responsibly and authoritatively cover topics that help readers pursue their educational and career goals.


In-depth research

To create accurate and up-to-date content, our writers:

  • 搁别惫颈别飞听government data听from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and related sources to ensure that statistics, especially around employment data, are both current and factual.
  • 厂迟耻诲测听scholarly sources听and news journals to understand the conversation around a topic.听
  • Speak to听subject matter experts听from 澳门天天彩开奖记录 and beyond to input a relevant industry perspective.
  • AI is a powerful tool in research and content development. As with any new tool, however, it must be handled expertly and with transparency. That鈥檚 why we require full disclosure from any writer who uses AI during content production so that we may double-check for accuracy and originality. We also request our writers review and align with University policies regarding the use of AI.


Editing and review process

We leverage our staff鈥檚听extensive and diverse editorial experience听to make sure every article is coherent and informed.

The three-step review process includes:

  1. Two, sometimes three, rounds of edits to ensure quality and readability
  2. Review by subject matter experts to ensure each article is accurate and relevant
  3. Copyediting (no one likes a typo)

When it comes to our subject matter experts, the college deans have experience and knowledge you can鈥檛 find anywhere else. But it isn鈥檛 just deans. Alongside the deans, we work closely with fellow subject matter experts in pedagogy, career services, financial aid, student services and accreditation, they lead an editorial advisory committee comprised of their team members that review all of our content with the same eye for detail and accuracy that they apply to our curricula, career tools and student support offerings.


The reward

We told you it wasn't easy or quick to create a blog. But it is possible. Once this process wraps up, we are ready to post. And we do it every day. Why? To inform, engage and delight the people we care the most about: you.
