Which term is defined as a systematic method for teaching job skills, involving presenting questions or facts, allowing the person to respond, and giving the learner immediate feedback on the accuracy of their answers?

• A. Job Instruction Training (JIT)
• B. On-the-job training
• C. Apprenticeship Training
• D. Role-playing

Answer: (A)

Job Instruction Training uses a structured, question-and-answer approach to teach a task. The trainer presents the essential facts or steps, asks the learner questions, the learner responds, and the trainer provides immediate feedback on accuracy. This cycle repeats until the learner can perform the job steps correctly, with corrections given right away to reinforce correct performance. This precise sequence and immediate feedback distinguish it from other methods: on-the-job training covers learning while performing work but isn’t necessarily delivered in this fixed Q&A with instant correction format; apprenticeship programs are longer-term and broader, often involving multiple skills and a formal arrangement; role-playing focuses on practicing scenarios rather than teaching a specific job procedure with immediate feedback.
