This effects workers in northern states more often than in the south so we have made that point abundantly clear throughout the program. Most recently, Ive been working on training programs for the propane industry. Auto-refrigeration is most likely to occur when temperatures outside are low, say below 40 degrees.

We need to let the stakeholders define their expectations for the program. He recommends performance tests to measure an increase in skills. with a post-test to measure learning for the entire program. As for me, I realized I didn’t really understand Level 4 at all.
