UC OATS Training Environment

The UC OATS Training Environment is a non-live version of the system designed for practice and testing, containing a copy of the previous day's data from the live environment. Any changes made in the training environment do not affect the live system. It allows users to impersonate a faculty member using the "Become" feature and test UC OATS functionalities in a risk-free setting, making it an ideal space for learning, experimentation, and troubleshooting.
