• Provide one-on-one and small-group tutoring to learners who need additional support with inventory accuracy, process-following, documentation, equipment handling, or digital tools.
• Set up, reset, and break down lab equipment and consumables before and after each session, including asset tags, scanners, PPE, custody forms, RMA forms, receiving documents, inventory sheets, and lab materials.
• Reinforce chain-of-custody expectations for data center assets, including data-bearing devices, failed equipment, and items being staged, returned, redeployed, or decommissioned.
• Help learners connect classroom practice to workplace expectations, including ownership, accuracy, safety, escalation, documentation quality, and compliance.

Learner Performance and Support

• Track attendance and help maintain Salesforce, Canvas, the LMS, or other approved systems with grades, assessment results, lab completion, and learner progress notes.
• Help monitor learner progress and flag learners who are falling behind to the Lead Instructor.
• Provide timely learner feedback during labs and practice activities.
• Support individualized learner success plans as directed by the Lead Instructor or Program Manager.
• Participate in learner progress conversations, staff check-ins, and instructional planning meetings as needed.
• Reinforce program expectations related to attendance, professionalism, safety, participation, equipment handling, and classroom behavior.

Lab Operations and Administrative Support

• Assist with classroom and lab readiness, including equipment organization, station setup, inventory of training materials, and safe storage of tools and assets.
• Report missing, damaged, misplaced, or unsafe equipment to the Lead Instructor or Program Manager.
• Support documentation of lab issues, learner trends, equipment needs, and opportunities for course improvement.
• Maintain confidentiality and professionalism when handling learner data, performance information, and internal program communications.
