French term

doublage

French to English Other Human Resources Training procedure at an aluminum smelter
This is a proposed collective agreement for unionized workers at an aluminum smelter.

In the section on training:

- Formation d’accueil dans le secteur;
- Formation théorique, observation et essais pratiques;
- Mise en application pratique des acquis et ***doublage*** avec un équipier qualifié;
- Entrainement autonome à la fonction;
- Titularisation

It would appear that the trainee is "pairing up" with a team mate but not sure.

TIA

I believe this is what it means, but do not know if this is the accepted term, you will need to check.
Note from asker:
"Shadowing" had occurred to me, too. Thanks.
