All papers are peer reviewed by an international panel of academics, practitioners and consultants. Co-edited by Prof Tariq Abdelhamid (USA) and Alan Mossman (UK) the Journal aims to provide quality research by academics, practitioners and others in a form that is accessible to reflective practitioners as well as academics.

Tariq and Alan are happy to support practitioners who have never written for a journal before.

As LCJ is a web-based journal, once a paper has completed its progress through the review process it is published immediately.

If you have any ideas that would improve the journal, please email the editors.
