Standard Operating Procedures Document?
Hi Sara,

Student Employees Testing Out of Training
Your training is also about team building.? Using your skilled students to lead sessions ensures that they are part of the team and new employees get to know them.? Added benefit: if they are leading some of the training, you are free to observe, noting who is engaged and who is not.
