Business Communication Quarterly is the only refereed journal devoted solely to the teaching of communication in the workplace. The journal aims to present the many interdisciplinary, international, and organizational perspectives that characterize the field and specifically to publish research that advances knowledge about business communication pedagogy in both academic and workplace settings, including program design and assessment, the impact of technology, global and multicultural issues, and best practices. BCQ began as the Bulletin of the Association for Business Communication, which was founded in 1935, and the name was changed to Business Communication Quarterly in 1995 to meet the growing demand for scholarship on the teaching of business communication.

As an interdisciplinary journal, BCQ welcomes manuscripts that address a variety of theoretical, applied, and practical approaches and topics in the teaching of business, corporate, organizational, professional, or technical communication, including qualitative and quantitative research on classroom teaching or assessment, case studies of specific classroom techniques, reports on strategies for program development, and reviews of scholarship relevant to business communication pedagogy. Articles may also present an innovative assignment or methodology, including a rationale, enough detail to allow readers to adapt the innovation in their own teaching, and evidence of effectiveness. BCQ also publishes articles on a particular theme, for which a call is periodically announced on the ABC website: http://www.businesscommunication.org.
