The editorial team invites the submission of manuscripts that align with the goals of the journal and that seek to position Caribbean populations, its diaspora and contexts in ways that demonstrate the assets that they bring to better understand educational issues and scholarship in and beyond the region.

Our team is committed to a timely review of manuscripts. 

Submissions 

Submit your manuscript to the Caribbean Educational Research Journal (CERJ) via the ScholarOne manuscript submission system. This ScholarOne Video will guide you as you navigate the author submission process.

Manuscript Preparation

The CERJ journal is now under the management of Emerald Publishing. Potential authors are advised to develop and submit manuscripts that fit the goals of CERJ.

Previous issues  of CERJ can be accessed at https://ares2.cavehill.uwi.edu/fhe/education/publications/past-issues.aspx. Please ensure that you carefully attend to the Author Guidelines to determine how to address stylistic concerns. We advise against the use of terminology that may be construed as dehumanizing and caution potential authors to avoid bias in language regarding gender as well as how gender is represented in their work.
