# Creating Administrative/Validation Copies of Live Studies

### 

Testing/training Studies can be created within the Study Manager. This is useful when a copy is needed to either begin developing a new study based on a past one, or when testing needs to be done without altering data in the production study.

Only one testing/training study is allowed for every one production study.
