These materials have been developed for Cochrane trainers, specifically to be used in face-to-face workshops and other types of training. If you are a Cochrane trainer, you can download all the presentations, including additional materials, in a zipped file here (login required).

Authors may find the standard training materials also useful for self-directed learning, as they include slides with explanatory notes. The materials have been produced in collaboration with Cochrane Methods Groups in 2012 and 2013 (with some minor updates more recently), so some parts may not be fully up-to-date anymore. 

Cochrane Interactive Learning is the recommended online resource for learning about the systematic reviews and how to conduct them. At the moment this resource is available only in English, but we are planning to begin translation work on these in 2018.
