SCROLL TRACKER

Get to know your Tracker

This guided practice lets you learn the main parts of the Scroll Tracker using a fictional sample record before you begin your own six-month journey.

You will move between this page and a separate Practice Tracker. Keep both tabs open while you work through the steps.

Before you start

  1. This training uses a separate Practice Tracker. It does not change your real Tracker at scrolltracker.darcydawe.com.
  2. Use made-up answers. There is no need to enter personal information.
  3. Keep this training guide open. The Practice Tracker opens on its own separate site in another tab, and you will move between the two.
  4. The practice backup files are only for this training copy of the Tracker.

Clears any previous Practice Tracker record and starts the training again from the beginning.

Keeps your existing Practice Tracker record and reopens it where you left off.

Neither option affects your real Scroll Tracker.
