| Assessment and refinement phase |
Working with Principle Investigators, the facility management and EH&S team will assess the personnel, facilities, and pathogens to identify and fill the facility administration and operational gaps and drive the training matrix accordingly. Initial and ongoing assessment of technical capability, procedures and practices will be assessed by a team composed of the Biosafety Specialist, the PI and key staff (e.g., vivarium). |
| Implementation |
Beginning with the end in mind, it will be important to create momentum and enthusiasm for the program, and every opportunity should be used to encourage cooperation. In general, lecture and laboratory-based training can be limited to groups of 20-25 and 4-6, respectively. Overall, it will be important to be flexible to ensure maximal participation and opportunities for clarification of questions. |
| Development of sustainment and compliance |
To develop organic capability and provide sustainment to the training matrices that is cost effective and flexible, web-based and hands-on training is essential. |
