Preparing this module
- The job queue (expqueue) running on the training installation, with a worker or its cron part every minute; run one chain yourself before the class and time it.
- The learners' role needs
expai/chain(limited to the article chain if you like). - Chains make several requests per run; check the training limits and budget.
