Acceptable assessment methods

Supportive:

Training

  • Initial training can best be done in a safe environment, using mock-up or household products. The focus should lay on awareness and active use of available information.
  • In a later practice stage, the learner has to be informed, monitored and corrected every time a new product is used.
