Welcome to the SIOP/CARMA Introductory Reviewer Development workshop! The workshop provides participants with the opportunity to be introduced to basic reviewer competencies via readings and videos. The workshop was developed for those with limited to no experience reviewing. However, it can also serve as a useful refresher for more experienced reviewers! Upon completion of the training, participants will have the opportunity to receive a certification indicating that they have completed their training. The training is open-access and freely accessible to all interested participants.

The workshops are composed of three modules. Recordings of all live panels will be made available after August 22.

Reviewer practice

While not a required component of this workshop, we do encourage novice or inexperienced reviewers to contact a mentor for the opportunity to shadow them as they complete a review. However, editor approval/permission should be obtained prior to the shadowing experience.

Live panels

We are currently scheduled to have our three virtual panels on August 22, 2018:

The virtual panels will be conducted via Zoom (click here for session details), however, the sessions will be recorded and made available afterwards.

Certification

Participants have an opportunity to take a certification quiz upon completing the training. To successfully complete the training participants will need to have watched all three panel videos, have reviewed the reviewer competency model, and have reviewed the nine supplemental readings. Participants should then complete the Qualtrics quiz available here:
