The Case Centre is unique in offering an efficient worldwide case publishing and distribution service to both institutions and individual authors across the globe.
Supporting case authors is one of our most important activities. We welcome cases on all areas of business, management and government from organisations and individual authors worldwide and are committed to supporting the development and distribution of new cases. See our content distribution policy.
Who can submit a case?
Submitting a collection
If your organisation produces outstanding cases and is committed to regularly creating new material, your cases could form a partner collection distributed worldwide through The Case Centre.
This opportunity is available exclusively to member organisations. Check our list of members to see if your organisation is already a member, or to find out more about joining.
Once your collection is submitted, we’ll promote it to our global audience. Your cases will feature on a dedicated collection page on our website, with your brand and logo showcased alongside every product in our database. You’ll also receive regular sales reports, royalties, and exclusive access to networking opportunities where best practices and innovative ideas are shared.
Interested? Contact our Product Management Team to start the conversation.
Individual authors
If your organisation doesn’t have an established case collection, we’re here to help by providing you with a global distribution option. Our user-friendly online case submission service allows individual authors to submit cases and other teaching materials with minimum fuss and maximum speed.
Case submission is free for authors affiliated with member organisations of The Case Centre. A submission fee of $70/€66/£55 applies to authors from non-member organisations (payable online before you begin - check our terms and conditions). Becoming a member could save you this fee and unlock a range of other valuable benefits, including discounts, free webinars, reduced workshop fees, and dedicated support. Check if your organisation is a member and apply online here.
Once your case, teaching note, and any accompanying materials meet our submission requirements, our team will proof them to ensure accuracy, quality, and consistency. Your case will then be made available globally, typically within 60 working days. Our Product Management Team is here to support you every step of the way.

Recognition and impact
Any cases submitted to us are automatically eligible for our awards and listings, such as the bestselling and classic case lists, depending on their usage. Adoptions also contribute to your organisation’s position in our Impact Index, an annual ranking that recognises organisations for the global reach and impact of their case writing.
* All cases featured must comply with our editorial guidelines. Availability is limited, and opportunities are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
