To become a PLATO programmer, all you'd need was for the admin to hand you your login credentials along with "sit down at a terminal and follow instructions".  A logged out terminal would display "Press NEXT to begin" -- you'd do that and literally everything from that point on would be described by on-line help of one kind or another.

You can.  Check out cyber1.org -- a real PLATO system running on an emulated CDC Cyber.
