Wisconsin Nursing Home Administrators (NHA) Practice Exam

What is required if a program trainer will provide training?

1. At least one year of work experience in the area in which they will provide training

2. At least two years of administrative experience

3. Completion of a specialized train-the-trainer program

4. Formal teaching certification

The correct answer is: At least one year of work experience in the area in which they will provide training

A program trainer would need to have at least one year of work experience in the area in which they will provide training, as this will give them the necessary knowledge and expertise to effectively train others. Option B, at least two years of administrative experience, is incorrect because administrative experience may not be relevant to the subject matter being trained. Option C, completion of a specialized train-the-trainer program, may enhance a trainer's skills and knowledge, but it is not necessarily required. Option D, formal teaching certification, may be helpful but is not necessary as training and teaching are not the same. Therefore, the most important and necessary requirement for a program trainer is to have relevant work experience in the subject they will be training on.
