Answer:

Discourage Torri from continuing. Encourage Julie to continue.

Explanation:

The progress of all trainees is tracked. Those not showing good progress are moved to less demanding programs. This means that there is hope of still doing/getting a job, if they don't pass this test.

REQUIREMENT: By the 10th time doing the test, trainees must be able to complete the task in a maximum of 1 hour.

1st Trainee: Torri Olson-Alves

5 hours on Unit 4;   4 hours on Unit 8

Should Torri be encouraged to continue? NO.

There are 10 units or repetitions in all. If Torri spends 5 hours on Unit 4 and spends 4 hours on Unit 8, then Torri is slow or isn't making much progress. After 4 repetitions, her marginal product only increased by an hour. She most likely won't make it to 1 hour by the 10th repetition.

2nd Trainee: Julie Burgmeier

4 hours on Unit 3;   3 hours on Unit 6

Should Julie be encouraged to continue? YES.

Julie makes a progress of 1 hour after 3 repetitions. We can predict that after another 3 repetitions (on Unit 9) progress would be made again and by Unit 10, she would have met the required benchmark.
