If there's a problem, the officials should contact the AD through their proper channels and let him perform any necessary remedial training (or have it done by a designee).

If the AD won't take care of the problem, then having some remedial training in place isn't going to solve it either; and your clock operator is likely the least of your worries for that game. I'd be willing to bet the other duties (game management) aren't being performed adequately either.

Concerning the AD or other game management personnel, when I am at the table, rarely is the AD or other non-table game management there watching every move I do.

However when I'm not working at the table, the table is being carefully watched.

From my experience the AD that was here a couple of years ago had a better sense of what needed to be done than the current one.

So basically, if there was a problem with table operations the remedial training would have to be done by someone outside the school/school district.
