When it comes to onboarding your new hires what's the one thing that seems to inevitably get messed up? Training! Especially in surgery and anesthesia.In this episode, we talk to Clair Sauer, MSEd, CVT about ways we train folks (hint...there are best practices) ways we test folks on knowledge, and ways to make sure we are setting new employees up for success.Clair Sauer started her career as a High School Science teacher.  After teaching in the USA and Japan over the span of a decade, she earned her MSEd from West Chester University in 2004 . Since then, she has been involved in developing and spreading awareness of inclusive science programs for urban youth and under represented communities.  Upon leaving formal teaching, she worked extensively  shelter medicine, animal welfare and public resource management. Working in shelter med led her to pursue her CVT, which she received in 2018 from Harcum College. She loves being a CVT in both anesthesia and critical care while integrating her education background into her current role in academia. As well as still growing as a tech and becoming more aware of her own neurodivergence, she makes time to stay active in improving education and access to veterinary medicine for all. She has been nominated and recognized for her achievements and leadership, most recently in 2022, receiving the VECCS Steven Haskins Scholarship. She lives in Philadelphia with her 2 Doberman Pinschers and 2 kitties. Most of all, Clair likes going dancing with other nerds in vet med and riding bikes in the woods.  You can find her on IG @thevettechteacher and she is currently exploring life as a lecturer and consultant in education-based initiatives in our field. Email her at Clair.cvt@gmail.com with questions, comments, hellos, and content requests.
