African Health OER Network: Process of Content Submission to MedEdPORTAL

MedEdPORTAL is a free peer-reviewed publication service and repository for medical and oral health teaching materials, assessment tools, and faculty development resources. All copyright and patient privacy issues are addressed during the submission process so users around the globe can download and utilize any and all of the published resources for educational purposes without legal infringements. Any medical or dental educator or learner may submit materials to be considered for publication in MedEdPORTAL. This step by step guide provides more details on this initiative and how OER Africa can assist you with accessing restricted MedEdPORTAL Information.

For MedEdPORTAL, submissions must be completed by one of the authors. Read their submission instructions.  TheMedEdPORTAL FAQ is also a good reference. The Publications track is the one that is peer-reviewed, with over 80% of proposals accepted with or without revisions. The submitting author needs to register for a free account. When you submit, you'll be asked to select a Creative Commons License. The review process takes several months.
