Confirming which sections have been completedOnce all of the mandatory fields of a section have been completed, a green checkmark will appear next to the name of that section in the list of sections. Note that a green checkmark may also mean the section is not mandatory for the SSHRC CCV. If mandatory fields of a section have not been completed, a red X will appear next to the name of the section.
