Speaker 1, a staff member, said the training approach focuses on individual confidence and practical problem solving rather than formal testing. “Obviously, I work with each individual and see if they're getting up to that level of confidence that they feel comfortable I don't take I don't give them tests, but, you know, as we work with them, it's like, hey, here's a problem. Can you figure that out? And we work back and forth,” Speaker 1 said.
The speaker described an iterative, hands-on method: staff present a problem to a trainee, observe how the trainee approaches it, and then collaborate until the trainee feels confident. The remarks, drawn from meeting remarks recorded in the transcript, emphasized assessment through demonstration of skills rather than through examinations.
No formal action, vote, or policy change on training methods was recorded in the transcript excerpt. The statement appears as commentary about routine staff practice rather than a proposal for formal policy.
The meeting record does not specify which program or department the staff member represents, the number of trainees involved, or any planned changes to training protocols.
