Wait a moment, and if the submission was successful, you should be presented with the login screen. If your learning center has specified a specific background for the app, it will be applied now. You only have to activate your CrewPad Manager once, and then it will save it locally. If you wish to activate your CrewPad with a different learning center, you will have to uninstall and reinstall the CrewPad Manager app, and then repeat the activation process with a different Activation Code. 5 P a g e
