About this certification
Toilet paper roll installation is performed in nearly every household, yet almost no one has received formal instruction. This program corrects that oversight. It covers the history of the perforated roll, the long-running orientation debate, the mechanics of common holders, and the correct mounting position.
Candidates will also study the social dimension of the discipline: the unwritten household contract that governs who replaces the roll, and when. Successful candidates will be able to settle the over-or-under question with primary-source evidence and replace a roll in under ten seconds.

- The practical case for "over," and the situations where "under" makes sense

- The etiquette of the empty roll
