02 Oct Does experience impact training length?
It depends. If the incoming team member’s experience is highly relevant that experience can speed up the training process. Many of the requirements of GMP operation remain consistent across site, but there are site-specific difference in execution that require training effort for even experienced team members. At least one site has found that they needed to untrain an experienced hire and so the training actually proceeded more slowly than anticipated, as habits needed to be corrected or changed. Regardless of the background of the new hire, the training system should have built-in flexibility.
