Progression, Performance and Dismissal

Each given year of the SET Program has minimum performance standards used to assess performance and make a determination on progression and suitability to continue training. Detailed information on the performance standards is provided in the relevant sections of the Regulations Handbook. Detailed information on the Progression Regulations can be found in Section 4 of the Regulations Handbook.

 

Trainees must satisfactorily complete each performance standard for a given year to progress to the next year in good standing. Failure to satisfactorily complete one or more performance standards for a given year may result in a probationary period, additional training requirements or dismissal.
