- Results are returned to the user in relevancy ranked format, and can be further sorted, grouped, or filtered
- Searches/funding profiles can be saved for future use
- Search results can be set up to send daily or weekly notification alerts
- Basic training video tutorials are available on the site
This webinar will cover basic login, searches, and notifications from the system. There is a limit of 25 individual log-ins to the webinar on each date, therefore RSVPs to https://vprwebtool.wufoo.com/forms/spin-webinars-fall-2019/ will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis.
