Employees are considered to be in on-the-job training and are expected to obtain the skills and knowledge necessary to advance to journey level performance. As experience accrues, employees will perform with increasing independence and responsibility while being observed and reviewed by trainer. Employees are assigned to trainers and will work varying work schedules, weekends, nights and holidays.
Upon completion of formal training the employee will perform the full range of duties and responsibilities. Employees at this level receive only general direction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise and are fully aware of the operating procedure and policies within the work unit.

Employees must successfully pass training for CPR, EMD (Emergency Medical Dispatching), and the POST Dispatch Academy. Employees are assigned to varying work schedules, nights, weekends, holidays and overtime when required to keep the 24 hour dispatch center fully staffed.
