Definition #
Expert in the role being filled. Runs the trainee through the week. Keeps their own section. Trusted to manage a known process. Supersedes [Area Trainer] per the same vocabulary-update lock as [Lead]. Disambiguation Question locked alongside it: “When a gap shows up in the trainee, [Lead] and [Trainer] ask: is this the trainee or the process?”
Family #
[Controlled-Volume Training] vocabulary update. Supersedes [Area Trainer].
Why Behind the Thinking #
Keeping the Trainer trusted-not-audited (until graduation) protects the training relationship, while the shared Disambiguation Question with [Lead] prevents mid-week trainer audits from becoming a cover for poor process without breaking that trust frame.
Pairs With #
