For example, would having college transcripts and photo copies of our certificates be a good start to avoid having to worry about in the event only 1.5-2 weeks notice is given?
Here is what they wanted me to have:
-Social Security Card
-Radio Telephone license
-All Airman Certificates (copy of both sides) with English proficiency
-College Transcripts – copies ok
-First Class FAA medical (issued within six month of interview)
-Original Logbooks

I just created a basic spreadsheet tha included all columns from both my civilian and military logbooks.

ECIC will stay with you and offer prep (no additional fees) until you get a job, so in my case I had a chance to do in-person seminar prep close to home when I first started the application process (one of the guys at my squadron organized it), so I jumped at the chance. 14 months later, when I got the call to interview, I called them to attend a virtual seminar (online) a few weeks prior to my interview, and made an appointment for a 1-on-1 phone prep/mock-interview the week prior. Great team, great service, lots of experience. I also hear they do sim prep, but I didn't know that at the time and got in with FTI (also great).
