Abnahme

'Abname' is used twice on this training form, which is for an airport despatch worker. I thought at first it just meant he had passed the course (Abnahme bestanden) but 'Abnahme' is also listed as part of the training topic. Is this about "baggage acceptance" or something like that in both instances? There are many entries in the glossary for "Abnahme" but I am still not sure what is required in this context . It has been established that "BVD - OL Mitarbeiter" is a ramp services worker.

final test
Explanation:
It looks like the training is concluded with a final test which may or may not be a practical test where the trainee has to show that s/he can apply the class material properly.

agree  Steffen Walter: Abnahme is short for "Abnahme der Prüfung" ("die Prüfung wurde von einer Fachkraft abgenommen"). Siehe z. B. http://www.stbg.de/Zeitung/se300/scc.htm "Dabei war es der StBG von vornherein wichtig, die *Abnahme der Prüfung* mit einem vorgeschalteten ..."
