The time zone that is applied to the scheduled time is based on the Scheduled Email Timezone configuration that has been set on the LMS via the Systems tab in the Admin tool. Information about the time zone is provided in the modal. 

Once the Admin has selected a date and time for publication, they will click on the Schedule button to set the schedule. 

They will receive a quick confirmation modal outlining the details of their selected schedule.
