Background
The search box below limits results to Alliance webpages with categories for training and documentation. This is different from the search box at the upper right, which searches both the Alliance website and files stored on the Alliance’s Shared Drive for WordPress.
Results are displayed below the search box, with initial results including all pages with either Documentation or Training categories.
Enter search terms or phrases, and adjust the training resource types and/or categories to filter the results.
Filter Options
These are the options for filtering by training resource type and/or categories.

- Any Category: These categories provide more options to filter results and are associated with Alliance program areas.
