Formal advanced training in translation necessitates establishing a career in an exceed-ingly competitive global industry. Conducting a systematic and comprehensive review of the research literature in the field of translation training can be beneficial for research-ers and trainers. Thus, this article addresses research in translation training to analyze the findings of studies, covering a total of 1,088 published articles in major T&I journals from 2000 to 2020. Scientometric methods, as well as top-down and bottom-up thematic approaches, along with corpus analysis tools, were utilized to investigate the database. A multilayer (four-layer) classification system for the topics related to translation training was employed in the database. The research papers were generally categorized into four interrelated themes: translation teaching, translation evaluation/assessment, translation testing, and translation and technology. By employing a multilayer categorization scheme, the article presents the proportions of studies in each category and sub-category, including information on (co-)authorship, regions, institutions, journals, and languages. As a resource, the database distills top research for translation researchers, equipping them with the most up-to-date information on pedagogical practices, curriculum design, and the potential con-tributions of research.
