JBI Comprehensive Systematic Review Training Program

The JBI Comprehensive Systematic Review Training Program is a one, three or five-day program depending on research needs or areas of interest. By the end of the program, participants will have completed a protocol and are ready to submit the protocol for publication or commence their systematic review.

This three or five-day program prepares researchers and clinicians to develop, conduct, and report robust, high-quality systematic reviews of different evidence types in order to provide the strongest possible evidence to inform decision making or clinical guideline development in healthcare.
