Learning Objectives

Each objective describes an AST bench competency, method, QC, and category assignment, not antimicrobial selection or dosing.

Map zone diameters or MIC values to susceptible / intermediate / resistant (or institution-equivalent) categories using adopted tables only
Apply footnotes, exclusions, and “no breakpoint” situations without improvising cutoffs
State category claims with explicit dependence on institutional CLSI or EUCAST adoption and edition, never as universal dogma
