2010 Editorial Planner
Each issue of Quality Progress includes a cover story article as well as a number of features, departments and columns. The 2010 Quality Progress editorial planner includes topics that will be covered in each specific issue. Cover articles will be determined on the basis of trends, timing and scope of the complete editorial package.
If the topic you would like to write about does not appear in the editorial planner, please do not let that dissuade you from submitting your article. We will use all accepted articles, whether they align with a cover theme or not.
If you are aiming for a specific issue, please submit your article at least six months before the issue date. If you miss this deadline, send the article anyway. Quality Progress might use it in a different issue.
Please note these are the projected topics for feature articles (2,000-2,500 words max). Also see our column descriptions (which are limited to 600 words).
