Staff training
Name a program, a statute or a rule your team works in. Every sentence your people read points at a verified line of the source, so when that source changes, the course, the questions and the credentials resting on it all update the same day.
In most firms, one person is the reason the training is current. They read the Federal Register on a Sunday, they notice the sentence that changed, and they remember which deck it lives in. It works because they are good, and it holds only as long as they stay.
This makes that job structural.
The drift bench
On the left, one claim of 2,283, taken from an enacted statute because a real line demonstrates more than a placeholder. On the right, the three things training builds on top of it. Move the source, and everything downstream answers for itself. Every other claim in the corpus behaves exactly this way.
SOURCE · ONE CLAIM OF 2,283
“The program under section 124 … shall terminate on the date that is 3 years after the date of enactment.”
HCDA Sec. 124(g) · sunset 2029-07-11
“A permanent authority, for three years.”
CurrentWhen does the Sec. 124 program end?

CurrentThe source is sealed and everything built on it is current.
Nothing was taught from the old line in the interval. Elsewhere, this is a person remembering months later that a deck needs revisiting.
The mechanism
Course material here is a projection over sealed claims. Each layer points at the one beneath it, which is the only reason the cascade above is possible.
CLAIM
A claim holds the exact words of the statute, the citation that locates them, and a seal computed over its own content. It earns its way into a course by passing the corpus predicate, and a checker that has to be argued with is a checker we fix.
SENTENCE
The teaching language is written around the claim and records the seals it explains. That second half is the load-bearing one: protecting the answer key while leaving the sentences loose is how good training quietly ages.
QUESTION
A question stores references, so the right answer resolves to its claim at the moment it is served. The wrong answers are sibling provisions practitioners genuinely confuse, which makes a better question than invention would.
The same projection runs byte for byte every time, so verifying a course against its corpus is arithmetic rather than trust.
What it can teach
Courses are projected from the same verified corpus that powers every other product here, so the catalogue is the coverage. 54 programs across 8 domains today, 21 of them sealed to dossier depth, and a program joins the moment its dossier does.
Working in something outside this list? The engine takes a new body of law the same way it took these: find the primary sources, seal them, and the course follows from the claims.
Inside a lesson
A lesson opens with where the material comes from, because provenance before teaching is the whole posture. It closes eleven days later, when the beat returns to find out what actually stayed.

Three shapes
SHAPE.MODULE
A body of law taught end to end, in the order the program actually happens. Someone arrives knowing the general shape of a grant and leaves able to run the reporting clock on this one.
Best for onboarding a bench onto a new program
SHAPE.DESK
A standing loop for people who already know the work. Short, spaced returns keep a senior bench current as rules move, and the schedule shortens around the material a person finds hardest.
Best for keeping experienced staff current
SHAPE.COPILOT
Training that happens inside the work. It teaches at the moment a question comes up in a real engagement, so competence accrues out of hours that were already going to be spent.
Best where every hour is already committed
What a person carries out
A sealed record of demonstrated competence is what this issues. Where a specific professional-education credit is required, tell us which body governs it and we will answer that directly.
WHERE THE CORPUS IS THICK, AND WHERE IT IS THIN
Two kinds of source carry two different evidence gates, and the numbers separate sharply because of it. Enacted statute, where the text sits still and the quote can be pinned to a line: 1,960 of 1,962 claims clear the gate. Regulation and guidance, where a claim needs a cited anchor verified against the issuing source: 323 of 907.
That second figure is the gate working rather than a shortfall in the material. The remaining guidance claims are real and most will pass; they are waiting on the anchor that makes them teachable, and until then they stay out of every course. The same discipline governs adversarial review: 18 of 22 statute lanes carry an independent pass, and the corpus names the four that do not instead of leaving it to be assumed.

Built for
Bring a team onto a new program together, and hold the standard as the program changes underneath them.
Give new staff the same understanding your longest-serving program lead has, in a form that stays accurate after they leave.
Answer what a person was taught, which version of the rule it rested on, and the day they were taught it.
Name the statute or the funding program your team works in, and we come back with the shape of the training the verified corpus already supports.
