Question

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Although trainees may benefit from error-management elements and learn from their mistakes, the inclusion of errors should not be viewed as an enjoyable component of training. Rather, it should be seen as a necessary part of the learning process that helps individuals to develop and improve their skills. Including this statement in the report could undermine the seriousness of the training program and cause senior management to question its effectiveness.
