Preparoo Blue
This is the first level of our challenge. Simply sign up, and you'll get an email with a small task to complete each week (each takes 30 minutes or less).
Preparoo Blue started on September 28 and extends over four weeks. Towards the end, you'll receive a link to a short quiz. Test your knowledge and review your steps.
Once you've completed the quiz, you'll get an invitation to Preparoo Gold, which is the next level of preparedness.
Details and resources for each week's action are shown below.
