Answer to Question 1

When describing the single-opportunity assessment, the student should be clear that the assessment stops at whatever step the learner is unable to perform, and the learner receives a score of - for all subsequent steps. When describing the multiple-opportunity assessment, the learner should be clear that the assessment continues, even if the learner makes an error. In the event of an error, the trainer should perform the step for the learner, mark that step as a -, and continue to the next step.
