That's a mouthful.  Looks like we might need a guide for mentors.

So while giving some one on one training, if it's not apparent they applied it already, then go over how that skill applies to their editable area.

If they need to be given a mini project to apply the skill, then do so. Check on their progress the next time you meet. Testing out is fine after they show you they can actually apply their knowledge.

Once they satisfy your scrutiny for knowing and APPLYING that skill then you can sign off yes and add the date and your username in the mentors cell if you are not the main mentor. I use a cell in the checklist to drop a perms link of the project area just to keep track.

To our new m2.0 mentors. The objective of the checklist is to provide an objective way of measuring specific skill sets. The wiki links are written by the champs and/or experts. You need to be open to reviewing the wiki yourself as it may have been updated since the last time you reviewed it. The skills are grouped in a rough order of importance to rank 1, then rank 2 and then rank 3. Some skills may be needed in a different order at your choosing. But the idea is that

Skills build on each other. The wiki links given are sometimes repeated, and sometimes entirely too much information for that

Rank skill. So look at the description cell to get an idea of the objectives and keep in mind that the skill being taught is for that rank 1 or 2 level where the skill occupies. You might go back to that wiki at a later point to refine a different skill.
