There isn't a set list of must-haves, but they should cover the basics of Eden.
Ideally, when a student is done with a class, they'll have learned about more than just the review program.

There are some basic rules like, how to get products for students, price and the like. But each Mentor has there own style of teaching.

In the classes I've done (3), I used the EdenBlog to cover a lot of basics.
PLUS: Kindred's thread has been helpful too!

Is there plans to take Kindred's thread and make it permanent somewhere for all the new ones to read?

I'd suggest having a word processing program, Word or Open Office. This will help with the spelling and grammar issues that a lot of us have forgotten since HS.
We're basically looking for people who can write objective reviews on products and be as thorough as possible.

Thanks I've been reading threads and such about the program, but I've been a little nervous to sign up for a class is all. I love the idea behind it though. I'm on here all the time and it's just one new thing after another. bam bam bam :p

Check out their areas of expertise. I'd also look for someone of whichever gender you identify with.
