The <br />program will begin with an objective evaluation of the interns' technical and academic skills and a survey of <br />their own opinion of those skills. The staff will repeat these measurements at the end of each major element of <br />the program, and determine changes required to address weaknesses on programming revealed by these <br />measurements. This will enable staff to quickly shore up or replace program elements that are not <br />accomplishing their intended results. <br />F.
