Mission
Canadian Journal of Case Studies was established by the Canadian Resource Center to provide a continual flow of effective up-to-date cases to promote excellence in case teaching.
Publication Process
The process for publishing begins with submitting a case and teaching note to the editors of the journal at crcenter@gmx.us .
The work is then reviewed by the editors and either sent on for double-blind peer review or sent back to the authors for further work. If the work is not suitable for publication in the Journal of Case Studies, it may be rejected at the editorial review stage or anywhere along the review process.
Submissions are accepted at any time during the year, and the review process will follow the CJCS Timeline published on the CRC website. The Journal is published in every month. The journal has a 20 percent acceptance rate as noted in Cabell’s Directory of Publishing Opportunities.
Types of Cases Accepted
Canadian Journal of Case Studies publishes both decision-based and descriptive cases. Decision-based cases place students in the role of a decision-maker and ask them to make recommendations to handle or deal with the situation described effectively. Descriptive cases provide a description of a real situation and then challenge students to analyze, assess, evaluate the situation and determine if there was a more effective way to handle the situation.
Canadian Journal of Case Studies publishes both field-researched cases and cases for publication based on substantial research from secondary sources. For field-research cases, permissions are required from the organization and all persons interviewed. The journal does not accept fictional or synthesized cases.
Cases that have been published previously or are under review elsewhere will not be reviewed by the Journal of Case Studies.
