Journal Citation Reports (JCR) Training & Certification Program
June 2021

Welcome to the 2021 edition of ‘JCR Training & Certification Program’: couple of free WebEx trainings being conducted by the Clarivate product experts on various aspects of the platform.
Journals enlisted on JCR are chosen from those indexed on the Web of Science core collection - Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) and Social Science Citation Index (SSCI).
This certification training will acquaint you with the advanced and unique features of the JCR. The entire program will be divided into two parts.
- Benefit to researchers: JCR helps you decide if a given journal is a good place for you to publish, as well as show how you have contributed to that journal with your previous articles.
- Benefit to a research office or librarian: JCR helps you decide if a given journal is the right journal to add to your library’s collection, as well as how your institution’s researchers are contributing to that journal’s story. This helps in taking an informed decision for an effective utilization of the library resource budgets.
