To register, please send (a) a current CV and (b) a completed and edited manuscript that you plan to submit to a peer-reviewed research journal to Lara Jelenc (lara.jelenc@efri.hr) by April 25th, 2018 and (c) state if you have ever been a member of the AOM in the past. Scholars admitted to the PDW will be notified by beginning of May. We also offer need and merit based financial support for many admitted scholars (see details below).
PDW Format:
The PDW consists of three highly interactive sessions, which complement each other.
Editor Panel: Current and former journal editors share their insights from handling manuscripts originating in different countries, and discuss important issues such as how to frame research projects for publication, the distinct requirements of different outlets, how to overcome language difficulties, etc. All panelists have served on multiple editorial boards.
Global Scholars Panel: Well-published scholars from around the world share their successes and challenges, and provide their experiences with the review process.
Paper Development Session: In this session, registered participants will receive feedback on their submitted manuscripts from facilitators, along with suggestions on how to successfully publish them.
Throughout the PDW, ongoing dialogue will address different types of research articles (quantitative, qualitative, theoretical, etc.), taking into consideration the research traditions of scholars from different parts of the world.
After the PDW the STR Executive Committee will also sponsor an offsite lunch for registered participants.

The financial support will include up to five (5) travel grants of US $250 and up to three (3) free conference registration vouchers (for first-time conference attendees ONLY). Financial support will be offered on the basis of: (a) quality and promise of the manuscripts, and (b) demonstrated need, both to be determined solely by the STR Division. Scholars admitted to the PDW are encouraged to seek additional "matching" funding from other sources. The PDW organizers will arrange recommendation letters, if needed, to secure these additional funds.
