## Prerequisites

[Create a project](https://civalgo.gitbook.io/civalgo-docs/~/revisions/iQlhVwwqec4jFdPQvsbE/documentation/management/create-a-project)

## Create a project type

5. Name your type “Model” and confirm

Your model type is now created. Then you can [**create a project**](https://www.notion.so/Cr-er-un-projet-66e949bd38c441c7801938f1f6117b02?pvs=21) and define the type of project as a “model.”

## Duplicate a project

Once a “template” project is created and you need to start a new project based on this template, you can easily duplicate it with its structure to save time.

1. Go to the projects tab
2. Find the project you want to duplicate. You can filter by type in properties. In the option bar to the right of the project, select the “duplicate” button.
