Overview

The TRAINING system features the American Society of Office Dogs, a credentialing program that awards specialty credentials to canines with a demonstrated ability to behave in an office environment.

In this module, we will register as a new applicant (a dog wishing to earn this credential) and will go through the entire process of submitting an application, having that application reviewed by the credentialing program, and then ultimately awarded the credential.

Note

This page assumes that If you are working with a freshly restored version of the TRAINING database snapshot. Heuristics employees are recommended to Heuristics employee, you should go through training in their your local development environment or in a personalized training instance so that you can reset to that known good state a known, clean starting point as needed.

If you are referencing the public training site at http://training.learningbuilder.com, you may run into discrepancies caused by an outdated starting point, or because of changes made by other users. Please contact us for assistance if that website does not match this documentation.
