Which skill levels are involved in preparing and processing AOs and MPOs?

• A. Skill levels 2 and 3
• B. Skill levels 3 (Apprentice) and Skill Level 5 (Journeyman)
• C. Skill levels 4 and 6
• D. Skill levels 1 and 2

Answer: (B)

The task hinges on using a mix of hands-on, supervised prep and independent processing with enough experience to ensure accuracy. Apprentices handle the initial preparation of AOs and MPOs—gathering data, assembling the necessary forms, and following procedures under supervision. Journeymen take on the processing side, applying their experience to verify data, perform any needed checks, route for approvals, and finalize the documents. This pairing gives both proper oversight and sufficient expertise to complete the work correctly. Using other levels would either lack the needed processing authority or exceed what is required for the preparation stage, making the combination of Apprentice and Journeyman the best fit.
