Sample Scenario

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.

Step 1: Register as an Applicant

You begin this journey as "Fido", a lovable mutt who hates being left at home all day. You want nothing more than to earn your Certified Office Dog (COD) credential so that you can accompany Amy, your owner, to her day job where she goes to an office and spends 8 boring hours staring at a computer screen. (If you can't suspend disbelief this far, then just pretend that you're Amy doing all this work on behalf of Fido.)

Steps

1. If you are logged in, log out.
2. Navigate to the login page and click the "Get Started" button in the sidebar. This begins the registration process.
   
3. Enter your (Fido's) account information. (All of the pre-existing accounts in the demo database use "Passw0rd" as their password. Never do that on a real system; it's a terrible password!) Click the orange Submit button when finished. 
   
   
4. Once you click Submit, you will see a screen asking for a confirmation code. This will have been emailed to the email address you entered during registration. You can either copy/paste the code from that email, or just click the link within the email.
   
5. After finishing the registration process you will land on your "My Account" page. Continue to the next section.

Step 2: Tell the system you're a "Doggo"

Now that Fido has registered, the system needs to associate him with a Role in the system. Roles determine what sorts of Applications a user is allowed to start. In order to start the "Certified Office Dog" application, a user must first be assigned the "Doggo" role. (After all, we don't want cats to try and register as a COD, amirite!?)

Steps

1. The popup may have opened automatically once you landed on the "My Account" page. If it did not, click the orange Become an Office Dog button.
   
2. Select Yes, that cats are stupid, to bypass the validation rule. (This may not seem very secure, but as you know cats aren't very smart, and we think it will suffice)
   
3. Click the "Continue" button to finish the process and grant the "Doggo" Role to your (Fido's) account.
   
   
4. Upon successful granting of the Role, you will be taken to the list of applications that you're able to start. 
   
   
   
5. Click the "Begin" button to begin the Certified Office Dog application

Step 3: Fill out the application

The American Society of Office Dogs wants the "Certified Office Dog" credential to mean something, so they've established a couple of hoops you need to jump through before you can officially submit your application.
