Urogynecology Peer Reviewer Academy

Application closes March 27, 2025.

The journal is pleased to announce the continuation of the Urogynecology Peer Reviewer Academy. The Academy will offer an annual training cycle to practicing urogynecologists (including new fellowship graduates).  

Successful applicants will join the dedicated training program as Peer Reviewers and upon successful graduation will become recognized “Academy Graduate” peer reviewers for Urogynecology. Academy training sessions will begin in September 2025.  The 1-year program includes preparation of four quality peer reviews with an Academy mentor who will provide feedback during the preparation of peer reviews for assigned Urogynecology journal manuscripts.  Participation in the Academy provides a strong base in peer reviewing manuscripts although it is not a prerequisite to becoming a peer reviewer for Urogynecology.

Academy participants are expected to attend the following two 1-hour training sessions (there will be two options per session) that are aligned with the journal’s recently updated peer-reviewer guidance and taught by Urogynecology editorial team members.
