SEECI will only accept manuscripts through the OJS management platform (for technical problems contact editor@seeci.net). Once the article has been received, an acknowledgement of receipt will be sent by automatic email generated by the platform itself.  The papers will be submitted to an initial evaluation by the Editorial Committee, which will verify that the manuscript meets the criteria of clarity, pertinence and relevance, as well as the editorial guidelines of SEECI. Failure to comply with the criteria reflected in the checklist will result in automatic rejection. In addition, the subject matter must be of interest to the journal. Authors of articles that are not accepted in this first evaluation will be informed of the rejection within ten (10) working days.

If the article is accepted, it will pass to the Peer Review phase. The total estimated time of the Editorial Process will depend largely on how many rounds of review the manuscript must undergo. In each round of review, authors will have 5-10 calendar days to make the pertinent corrections, depending on the number of corrections suggested for each paper. As a rule, SEECI will not admit more than 3 rounds. If at the end of these rounds, there is no agreement with the decision of the reviewers, the article will be rejected, since it will be understood that the aspects pointed out in the previous rounds are not being corrected. The maximum period for scientific evaluation is 90 days, the average review response time is 40 days.

Once the manuscript is accepted for publication, it will go to the Editing stage. During this stage, the manuscript undergoes bibliographic and style correction. It is estimated around 15 days for the completion of this process, depending on the delay in the response from the authors to the corrections requested in this phase.

Once the article has been corrected from the ortho-typographic and bibliographic point of view, it will be translated into English or Spanish. The official language of SEECI is Spanish, although contributions are accepted in English, French, Italian and Portuguese. The Journal is bilingual in its publication since the texts are always translated into English. The estimated time for this phase is 10 working days.

Since 2021 SEECI has adopted the continuous publication system, uploading the articles individually as the editorial process is completed in open access electronic format. Prior to the publication of the official issue, articles will be available in the "Accepted articles" section where they can be cited and consulted through their DOI.

The maximum estimated time for the completion of the entire editorial process from the reception of the submission to its final publication is 16 weeks.
