The peer-review process is essential to the development of research across all subject areas, ensuring the integrity of the scientific record, and an important step towards gaining the experience required to join an Editorial Board is to become a strong peer reviewer.
When publishing your work open access, your institution may be able to help you to cover the open access article processing charge (APC) through an Open Access agreement they have with Sage.
Your institution may also have an open access prepaid account (OAPA) with Sage in order to cover APCs or you may be eligible for a discount due to your institutional affiliation.
