Staff Training

**Training** is used to increase skills for Members of Staff, make them more strong or supportive, or allow them to access new tasks.

## Training

Training Staff requires the Training Room with a Training Pod. Only one Staff can be trained at a time per Training Pod.

* To start a training course, click on the Training Pod, or on the Staffs UI "Train Stuff" button.
* In the training screen, select the qualification you want staff to learn, then click the "Start Training" button.

### Training Process

Staff will always prioritise their work over training. That means they only go to their training when they are free. They can interrupt their training and continue it when they are free and the campus has a free Training Pod available.

### Qualification Level

Each Qualification can be leveled up by staff training, to increase the efficiency of the qualification. For all Qualifications, the maximum trainable level is 10, with most featuring a cap that raises with the Campus Level.

The cap for course-specific Qualifications, however, is instead raised by raising the Course Level itself. The Qualification Level cap begins at level 3, and raises with most Course Levels, until it reaches level 10 when the Course Level is likewise, as illustrated in this table:

## Unused Content

There are indications in the game's files of two Qualifications that are not used in release.

*'Take less experienced staff member's under your wing.'*
It can be speculated from the image that it was once intended that certain Members of Staff would train one another in what we now know as the Private Tuition Room.

*'Erect buildings faster than ever by improving your woodworking skills and learning what a lintel is.'*
The information for this Qualification indicates that at one point in development, Janitors were responsible for erecting Campus Buildings, presumably becoming faster at the job by increasing the skill level.

The tooltip for Campus Buildings still retains an indication of this, including the icon for the Qualification, although in the final version of the game, the construction process is completed automatically. Performance will still depend upon the size of the task (larger buildings take longer to complete).

In Version 5.0 of the game, new images were introduced for the Mechanics and Security Qualifications. The original images are presented here:

In addition, v5.0 also briefly saw the Comic Timing Qualification renamed to "Charisma" by mistake, which was reversed in a later update.
