Training (Room)

For staff training information, see Staff Training



Building a Training Room allows you to run a training course. Staff with a free training slot can go on a course to earn a new qualification.

Start a training course by dropping a member of staff here or select a lectern, picking which qualification you want to teach, then adding trainees.

Function
To start a training course, click on the lectern, or drop a suitable member of staff into the room. Staff will also request training when they're ready. In the training screen, select the qualification you want staff to learn, assign a trainer and select the staff you wish to send on this course. When you're ready, click the start button.

Guest Trainers

 * Flottering: Fees: $10,000 + $10,000 per Trainee
 * Mitton University: Fees: $10,000 + $5,000 per Trainee

Training Speed
The speed at which a person can be trained affects the duration of the class, measured in days. There are three 'traits' that can affect training speed:


 * Teacher- Adds 50% to training speed (Has no effect if they are the trainee)


 * Fast Learner- Adds 50% to learning speed (Has no effect if they are the trainer)


 * Cheese brain- Subtracts 25% from learning speed (Has no effect if they are trainer)

There is also a skill that can be taught in the training room which affects learning and training speed:


 * Training Master Class- Adds 50% to both training speed & learning speed.

The base training/learning speeds are assigned per training slot, regardless of whether or not there is a class trained in that slot.


 * 1 slot- 100% Training/Learning Speed


 * 2 - 110%


 * 3 - 120%


 * 4 - 130%


 * 5 - 140%


 * Guest Trainer -160% Training Speed

When calculating the effect of traits (or master class) on training/learning speed, it does not stack directly. Example: Training speed 140% (Chief Nurse) + 50% = 190% Training speed.) Instead, it takes 50% of their natural training speed and adds it to their total. Example: A natural Training Speed 140% (Chief Nurse) with the addition of the 'Mentor trait', has a speed of 210%. (140/2=70   70+140=210)

When calculating the Total Training Speed (TTS) of the class, the speed of the trainer (TS) stacks on the learning speed of the student (LS) when either of those values is higher than 100%.


 * A trainer with 100% TS and a student with 100% LS = 100% TTS


 * A trainer with 110% TS and a student with 100% LS = 110% TTS

There are items that can add to the TTS of the class room. Most of them add 1% to the TTS with the exception of the Encyclopedia I (+2%) and the Encyclopedia II (+4%).

As the training advances in difficulty (which starts at 1 and goes up to 5), the duration of the class gets longer.
