Usually you should be given information from the institute where the trainee is completing there assignments/modules from. You just need to make sure you support the trainee through their studies, guide their learning and interactions etc. They should also be given a "work placement book" or "on the job assessment" have a look through this and it should give you a better idea to understand what is expected of them.

Hope this helps,
