Original Survey Approach - Responses Based on Supervisor’s Total
Experience
Advantages (compared to alternative’methodologies):
a. Larger sample at any point in time
b. Bl’eaks out information by skill groups specific to speciality
or job performed
c. Can be completed in one sitting - minimizing turnaround
and survey control workload
Disadvantages:
a. Speciality - dependent
1. makes aggregation of OJT cost data across specialities
more complex
2. requires that a different survey form be developed for
each speciality
3. rcquircs multiple formats for mair??enance of OJT
cost data.
b. High response variation, resulting in relatively hil:h variance
around OJT cost estimate. ;
