Complete project to-dos

Find assigned Project To-dos in OpenTrain and learn how to complete acknowledgements, forms, quizzes, reviewed items, and verified setup actions.

Project To-dos are the actions an employer assigns to you for a specific job. They may include reading updated instructions, completing training or a quiz, signing an agreement, submitting requested evidence, or setting up a required tool.

A required to-do card shows why the item matters, when it is due, and the exact completion action available to you.

  1. Read the full title, description, due date, and any linked instructions.
  2. Complete the requested action using the button on the card.
  3. Return to Project To-dos and confirm that the item moved forward or no longer needs action from you.

The button and completion behavior depend on the type of to-do:

Action you seeWhat happens
I have read thisConfirms that you read the assigned material.
Mark completeRecords your confirmation that you completed the stated action.
Open form or quizOpens an OpenTrain form or quiz. Follow the instructions shown there; some quizzes require a passing score.
Submit for reviewSends the required written response, link, or file to the employer. The item remains incomplete until it is approved.
Open required actionOpens the linked service or resource in a new tab. Complete the action there, then follow the completion instructions on the card.
Open project instructionsOpens the exact Instructions page linked to this to-do in a new tab, so your Project To-do stays open. Reading the page does not by itself complete the item; return and use the required completion or verification action.
A check or verify actionAsks OpenTrain to check an external service. The item completes only after that service confirms the requirement.

OpenTrain can block the project’s work area while a required item needs your action. It does not block your messages, time records, earned payments, support, or disputes.

Complete the items under Required to continue first. If an item is already under Waiting on your project manager, you have completed your current step and should wait for the employer’s review.

  • For unclear to-do instructions, missing assignments, or returned feedback, use the job’s Messages tab to contact the project team.
  • For an OpenTrain account or platform problem, select Support/Report bug in the left navigation.
  • If an external service does not verify your action, re-read the setup steps on the card before asking the project manager to check the assignment.
