How would you say "get with the program" in spanish? Since this is an english idiom, there isn't a direct translation. But is there a saying in spanish that people use when telling people to "get on board" with something or "get with the program?"

Any help you could provide would be appreciated. A spanish idiom would work well also.

Thanks!!!

Another option would be: "ponte al día", which is along the lines of "get yourself updated". I don't know if that sort of thing would work.

Wow, I love to find the exact right saying for both languages and this is a toughy! The only thing I can think of is if you say instead 'get on board with it....' then of course it would just be 'ponerse a bordo' but I cannot think of anything for 'get with the program'

These are only suggestions:

abrirle los ojos,

darse cuenta de algo

More colloquially:
apiolarse, avivarse
