# Get Started

Hello student 👋

Congratulations on being accepted to ReDI School for Spring 2026! We're excited to have you on board.

This self-onboarding process will take approximately **60 minutes** to complete and should be finished before **March 13th, 2026** (the end of the day). It is designed as a "getting started" guide to prepare you for your upcoming course.

### Why Complete This Self-Onboarding?

The self-onboarding flow is a structured set of steps that will help you:

* [x] Understand your Course - structure, schedule, and expectations
* [x] Learn about the Collaboration Guidelines - how do we collaborate
* [x] Get Onboarded in the Tools 
* [x] Find out more about Study Strategies

### How to Complete This Self-Onboarding?

Take your time to go through and understand each section and set up everything listed in the tool pages. This is a self learning process, so you are responsible for its completion. AI tools such as ChatGPT can help provide more context on the listed tools, and there will be an onboarding session before your first class, where you can bring any questions. At the end is a form to ask you if you managed to get onboarded in all the tools.

Let's begin this journey together!
