Certified Departmental Trainers are requested to return this document to OCLD if any amendments are made to the Lesson Plan or PREP-sheet, either to improve its delivery or to reflect a particular unit-based operating procedure that may differ from the overall standard. Any such amendment will be evaluated and, if appropriate, incorporated into the original at OCLD. A revised version will then be sent to each hotel so that it can update its library of lesson plans. In some cases a second version of the lesson plan may be required in cases where major differences in approach occur because of the application of a task in a particular brand. CDTs are requested to send brand-specific amendments to OCLD for publication throughout that brand. Your co-operation is requested to ensure true standardisation of quality training across the company.
