Training Programme & Competency Framework

This section outlines the structured 5-stage competency methodology used to train and certify healthcare staff before granting independent, unsupervised access to the live Moana system.

IMPORTANT:

Mandatory Competency Requirement No user proceeds to independent, unsupervised use of the live Moana system until they have demonstrated competency for ALL workflows relevant to their assigned role. Attendance at a training session is not sufficient — competency must be observed, demonstrated, and formally signed off by the certified trainer.


1. The 5-Stage Competency Progression

Every trainee progresses through five standardized instructional stages:

StageActivityFormal Sign-Off Criterion
1. ObservedTrainee watches trainer complete the full workflow end-to-end, including exception and safety handling.Trainer confirms trainee observed all required steps.
2. Practised with GuidanceTrainee performs the workflow with the trainer present and available for immediate support.Trainer confirms guided practice is complete without fundamental errors.
3. Performed IndependentlyTrainee completes the full workflow without trainer guidance or prompting.Trainer confirms independent completion with zero prompts needed.
4. Scenario ExecutionTrainee completes a realistic, role-specific synthetic scenario from start to finish, including handling an exception or safety alert.Scenario completed without assistance; safety rules and alerts correctly handled.
5. Competency Sign-OffTrainer assesses trainee against the role competency checklist; signs and dates the official record.Trainer signature recorded; competency record filed as official go-live evidence.
