Check your application acceptance email for your training start date. On that date, you will receive an email – perhaps late in the day where you are – welcoming you to the Academy email list. That email will ask you to reply to the list with your character name and confirmation that you're ready to begin training. Once all the cadets assigned to your class reply, training will start.
The purpose of the training group is to introduce you to how the game works, and explain some concepts that might be new to you. If you want, you can read ahead into the tutorials we'll send to you each day during training. We've listed them below. Don't worry if you can't get to them before training starts – we'll be sure to email them to you each day during training!
