Overall Summary:

This preprint describes the findings of a systematic review, carried out according to PRISMA standards, of online resources for peer review training. The authors find 43 training opportunities online from the last 10 years, of which 20 openly available resources met criteria for analysis. Sources tended not to have author or funding sources disclosed; were made most often by publishers; and most often could be completed in under an hour. 4 of the resources were considered evidence-based. The authors highlight the scarcity of materials for peer review and posit this as a contributing factor to scarcity in reported peer review training, potentially affecting the quality of peer review. This is a useful summary of the state of online training in peer review.
