What is the OJT Program?

• A. Off-site classroom training only.
• B. Online vendor training.
• C. Annual safety drills.
• D. On the Job Training for personnel to learn skills they need for their specialty that isn't covered in books. Conducted also to qualify personnel in upgrades and Job Quals.

Answer: (D)

On-the-Job Training (OJT) is hands-on instruction conducted in the actual work setting under supervision, designed to teach the skills a person needs for their specialty that aren’t covered by books or manuals. It also serves to qualify personnel for upgrades and Job Qualifications (Job Quals), ensuring they can perform advanced tasks to the required standard through practical work, observation, practice, and documented progress.

This differs from off-site classroom training, which happens away from the job site and may not involve performing real tasks. Online vendor training is module-based and vendor-specific, not necessarily tied to the worker’s actual duties. Annual safety drills are periodic safety activities, not a comprehensive program for learning specialty skills or earning upgrades and qualifications.
