Questions and answers

How does QTP4N0X1B-10 standardize neurodiagnostic training?

Remember--the objective of each QTP is to standardize training and to allow sufficient time for the trainee to learn each task thoroughly in order to perform the task without assistance. (paragraph 3)

What checklist is used to evaluate each task objective?

The performance checklist must be used as you evaluate each task objective. (paragraph 4)

How is task completion documented after successful evaluation?

When the trainee successfully accomplishes the objective, document task completion appropriately in the six-part folder. (paragraph 4)

Where is QTP task completion annotated?

The QTP task completion is to be annotated on AF Form 1098, Special Task Certification and Recurring Training, filed in Part 3, Section B in AFTR. (paragraph 6)

What happens when a trainee does not accomplish an objective?

If the trainee does not accomplish the objective, review the areas which need remediation. (paragraph 7)
