What should a trainee do if they disagree with changes made by a supervising appraiser to their report?

Ignore the changes
Not sign the certification
Seek legal advice
Discuss the changes with the supervising appraiser

The correct answer is: Discuss the changes with the supervising appraiser

When a trainee disagrees with changes made by a supervising appraiser to their report, the appropriate action is to discuss the changes with the supervising appraiser. Open communication is vital in the training process; it allows the trainee to understand the reasoning behind the modifications and gain insights into the appraisal process. Engaging in a constructive dialogue can foster learning, ensure that all aspects of the appraisal are accurate and compliant with professional standards, and strengthen the relationship between the trainee and the supervising appraiser. The other options do not foster professional development or accountability. Ignoring the changes could lead to misunderstandings or errors in the report. Not signing the certification may prevent the completion and submission of the report, which might not be a practical resolution. Seeking legal advice is typically unnecessary for this scenario and could complicate the relationship with the supervising appraiser. Therefore, discussing the changes opens the door for education and collaboration, which is essential in a trainee's professional growth.
