How it works

  1. Mentors assign

    Pick skills from a full-year V5RC path and assign them to one rookie or the whole group, with due dates.

  2. Rookies learn and quiz

    Each skill has free resources and a short quiz that is graded on the server, so the answers can't be looked up.

  3. Mentors sign off in person

    When a rookie shows the skill in the shop, the mentor taps sign-off. A readiness dashboard shows who is on pace.
