How to load the template§

  1. Create a new Trello board in your personal workspace.
  2. Add two lists named exactly: 🚀 Learning Loop and 🛠 Sim-Day Tasks.
  3. Copy-paste each card title (the “Copy card” dialog keeps checklists intact).
  4. Link every timer you run to the corresponding card URL or SIM/Sheet row.

Tip: Once the operator finishes LL-09 with all ✅ icons, you promote their personal board to the real production Ops workspace and archive this learning board.

Now your Start-Here template seeds a complete, clock-tracked, self-paced boot-camp that certifies operators in the entire Solo-Team OS before they ever touch live client work.
