Which component of the OJT program is satisfied by a planned program of study and CDCs or technical references?

• A. Job experience component
• B. Job proficiency component
• C. Job knowledge component
• D. Job satisfaction component

Answer: (C)

The main idea is that knowledge in an OJT program comes from study and reference materials. A planned program of study, along with CDCs or technical references, builds the theoretical understanding needed to perform tasks correctly and safely. This is the knowledge component because it focuses on understanding procedures, policies, and the reasons behind how things are done. Hands-on experience and proving proficiency come from actually performing tasks and meeting standards, while job satisfaction relates to morale rather than the instructional content. So the study materials and references specifically satisfy the knowledge aspect of the OJT program.
