• When working with students or new employees, have you come across wet lab skills gaps that surprised you?
• And, once identified, did you do anything to help fill those skills gaps? If not, what is preventing you from doing so?
• Or maybe you have personally had an experience in which you came to discover one of your own skills gaps. What was your experience like in working to get that gap filled?

LET US KNOW!

Have you set up anything to intentionally allow new lab workers or students to practice using an eyewash station?

And when training, do you include anything about what the experience of being splashed in the eyes with a corrosive agent will be like?

And, if you haven’t, what is stopping you from doing so?
