What areas are easy and challenging? Why? What would make it easier? What supports would help address the challenges?

    15. How are they prepared? Supervisors said: Traditionally supervisors are chosen because they are good journeypersons Often chosen from observation show leadership skills They have some but not all the skills required Have little informal and formal training

    16. What was the transition like? Supervisors said: Often overwhelming Big learning curve using skills not required when working on the tools Often do not have experience with drawings, reports, laws and regulations or the skill sets to complete scheduling and planning and documentation Need to learn the process so as to see the big picture to know what is coming up Front line supervisors need to talk like a trades person but think and write like a lawyer.

    17.
