PEG’s national webinar programme
PEG’s webinars are available to anyone interested in improving their skill in copy-editing and other related topics. The webinar programme provides a wide range of online CPD opportunities. Our members enjoy a preferential rate. See the ‘Upcoming webinars’ programme below for fees charged for members and non-members. At least two webinars on different topics are offered in most months.
The programme offers a diverse range of editing-related topics:
- editing
- proofreading
- language usage, grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc
- house style (consistency)
- technical matters (eg using MS Word, MS Excel and Adobe Acrobat more effectively)
- aspects of managing a freelance business
- extending skills into related areas
- marketing one’s services

PEG’s accreditation scheme
The table below provides the current webinar rates. Whereas PEG members enjoy a preferential rate, an early-bird discount is available to everyone
| Affiliation | Early-bird registration fee | Full registration fee | Early-bird registration fee (two webinars) |
| PEG members | R295 | R380 | R500 |
| Members of affiliate organisations* | R495 | R580 | – |
| Non-affiliated members | R695 | R780 | – |
Should you register and pay for TWO webinars in advance in one transaction before the early-bird deadline of the first webinar you wish to attend, you will qualify for a discount on the total package: For example, instead of 2 × R295 = R590, PEG members receive a discount of R90. The total cost for the two webinars, paid for simultaneously, will therefore be R500.
This discount applies only to PEG members and only to an early-bird registration for the BERF webinars.
