In this article we will cover how to sign up for trainings offered by the DFL Data Team. We are accepting sign ups for all trainings, but note that you will not receive an invitation to your desired training until the week of the training. 


VAN Training -- All VAN users must take a recorded training.


HOW TO SIGN UP: Recorded VAN training is available in full on the Training Hub. From the Content page on the Training Hub, please search "2026 Required VAN Training" and filter to "Learning Paths." See the screenshot below for how to find the correct learning path:



Action Network


Action Network has a great how-to video on how to send emails using the service.


We also have a knowledge base article covering the basics. Our article Frequently Asked Questions on Action Network is also a useful starting point.
