Following the initiatives of different scholarly regulatory organizations (such as Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association (OASPA), International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) and American Medical Association (AMA)) which have made painstaking attempts to identify and set standards for publication misconduct have created a new era in the domain of scholarly publishing.
Openventio values the efforts of the aforementioned reputed scholarly organizations and aims to commit towards the maintenance of the highest scientific and ethical standards by adhering to and following the best publishing practices.
With the objective to maintain the integrity of our publications, Openventio pledges the following general guiding principles;
• Committing to academic freedom, and the right to publish;

Open Access Model in the recent years has disregarded the practice of charging the readers to view/read the published article by imposing Article Processing Charges (APC) on the authors upon publication of their article. This model has benefited the scientific community with the benefit of viewing and reading articles without any monetary barriers, by contributing towards further investigation or research to promote advancement of science.
Openventio Publishers follow the author pay system so as to cover our production expenses which involves editorial review, double-blinded peer review process, styling, editing, formatting, maintaining, and archiving services. APC is imposed at the beginning of the publication process and its flat rate varies according to the type of article for all our open journals.
| Country type | Research-based | Review-based | Case-based | Short type articles |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| High income | $1079 | $879 | $779 | $579 |
| Middle income | $779 | $579 | $479 | $379 |
| Low income | $579 | $379 | $279 | $179 |
* Apart from the APC, an additional $179 USD will be levied for language editing, irrespective of the article type.

Scholarly peer review in scientific journals is a quality control mechanism, where an author’s scholarly work, research, or ideas are subjected to a critical evaluation undertaken by experts specializing in the related area, prior to publication in a journal or as a book. The peer review process ensures that the articles published, meet the accepted standards of the discipline. Openventio follows an initial editorial review process (pre-quality editorial assessment-PQA), where the experts first assess the manuscript for their overall quality and suitability for publication in the journal; based on this system of evaluation, manuscripts are then accepted or rejected, followed by a double-blinded peer review process, which means that the confidentiality of both the reviewer and author identities are maintained, such that neither the author nor the reviewer details are disclosed throughout the review process. To facilitate this, authors are advised to ensure that the author details and blinded manuscript without the author details are submitted as two separate files.
step 1
• Submission via online portal or e-mail
• Cover letter, author and co-author details and manuscript
(separate files)
step 2
• Plagiarism check (Note: plagiarized, fabricated or content unsuitable
for the journal will be immediately rejected).
• Language editing for brevity.
• Ensuring that the manuscript structure includes the required sections.
• Sent back to the author (SBTA) seeking an approval of the introduced
edits.
step 3
• Double blinded peer review undertaken by expert researchers and
academicians.
• Revision done by authors on the basis of reviewer comments.
(*revisions must be highlighted and accompanied by a letter in
response to each comment by the reviewers)
• Revised article: Accept/Reject/Re-revise.
step 4
• Re-checks the revised manuscript to ensure that it meets the journal
standards
• Final decision: Accept/Reject /Re-write and Re-submit
step 5
• Checking for the composition and organization (formatting) of the
paper against the journal guidelines
• Reference styling and proof corrections
• Author’s confirmation of the final edited manuscript before
publication
• In this version, the author can create or suggest modifications in the
content for use within the module
step 6
• Accepted article is sent for generating the galley proof
• Online publication of the manuscript
