4. Attended cohorts and live webinars - really utilized the resources in the COS?
5. Met with CI to go over any task directions that you aren't sure about?
6. Have a contingency plan for those weeks where everything falls apart and life happens?
7 Met with the CI to go over the coaching report from PA?

10. Made your calls with your mentor?
