'Copy' means written material (rather than images or other design elements) intended for publication. So being a 'copywriter' isn't so mysterious - we're the people writing the copy.

What is an IPEd Accredited Editor (AE)?

The Institute of Professional Editors (IPEd) is the peak national body for Australian editors. The Institute exists to advance the profession of editing and to support and promote Australian editors. An IPEd Accredited Editor (AE) has demonstrated his or her understanding of editing standards and practice by passing the IPEd accreditation exam. The exam measures competence against the Australian Standards for Editing Practice. IPEd held its fourth exam in October 2012, and there are now about 300 accredited editors in Australia. Accredited editors may use the postnominal AE.
