EJITE Publication Process

EJITE is dedicated to a thorough and transparent peer-review process to guarantee the excellence and relevance of the research we publish. Here is an overview of the standard publication procedure.

1. Submission:

• Authors submit their manuscripts online through our Online Submission System.
• Manuscripts are checked for completeness and adherence to our Author Guidelines.

2. Initial Review:

• The Editor-in-Chief or an Associate Editor conducts an initial review to assess the manuscript's suitability for EJITE.
• Manuscripts that do not meet our scope or quality standards may be rejected without external peer review.

3. Peer Review:

• Suitable manuscripts are sent to at least two independent experts in the field for double-blind peer review.
• Reviewers assess the manuscript's originality, significance, methodology, clarity, and relevance to the field.

4. Decision:

• Based on the reviewers' recommendations, the Editor-in-Chief decides to accept, revise, or reject the manuscript.
• Authors receive a decision letter with the reviewers' comments and the Editor's decision.

5. Revision (if necessary):

• Authors are given an opportunity to revise their manuscript based on the reviewer feedback.
• Revised manuscripts are re-submitted for further review.

6. Acceptance:

• Once the manuscript meets our standards, it is formally accepted for publication.
• Authors are asked to sign a copyright transfer agreement. Download EJITE copyright form

7. Production:

• The accepted manuscript undergoes copyediting, typesetting, and formatting.
• Authors review and approve the final proof before publication.

8. Publication:

• The final article is published online in an upcoming issue of EJITE.
• The article is assigned a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) for permanent reference.

Timelines:

We strive to complete the peer-review process within 4-6 weeks of submission. However, the actual time may vary depending on the complexity of the manuscript and reviewer availability.

Open Access:

EJITE follows an open-access model, making all published articles freely available online to readers worldwide.
