 We have prepared a [Workshop Reference Document](/files/handouts/CO201-01_WorkshopReferenceDocument.pdf) that you can use to record important information that you will need throughout the workshop. It contains two sections:
 
-SECTION A. Virtual Machine
+### SECTION A. Virtual Machine
 
 This section allows you to record the number of the virtual machine that you have been assigned. 
 
 * On line **2. Your VM**, record this number in the blank line. For example, if your number is '1', your VM will be `registry1-private`.
 * On line **3. Your COmanage site**, also record the number on the blank line. For example, if your number is 1, your COmanage site (when up and running) will be found at https://registry1.comanage.incommontraining.training
 
-SECTION B. Your Persona
+### SECTION B. Your Persona
 
 During this training you will be working with three different 'persona': a CMP (platform) Administrator, a CO Administrator, and a Regular User. Don't worry at the moment what these terms mean. Pinned to the Workshop Slack Channel (#comanage-temple) is a file that lists many users that will be available for signing into COmanage. Record the three users that correspond to your VM number, including their givenName, sn (surname), uid (unique identifier), and mail (email address).
