I'm no project manager, but I know that investing in people is usually the best investment you can make. Option C all the way, like a boss!

I'm just imagining the team member trying to learn on the job while juggling a full project workload. That's a recipe for disaster. Training is definitely the way to go.

Allocating schedule reserve? That's like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. The real solution is to give the team member the support they need to succeed.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Obtaining a new resource might be quicker, but it's not the most cost-effective solution. Training the existing team member could pay off in the long run.

I agree with Alyssa. Investing in training is the best way to address the team member's lack of experience. It's a win-win for the project and the individual.

Option C seems like the most logical solution. Providing the team member with training will help them gain the necessary skills to contribute effectively to the project.
