shadow (someone)
Acompanhar


Explanation:
Dependo da profissão, você deve conviver conviver com uma pessoa mais experiente no dia a dia da profissão por um tempo, acompanhando-a em tudo que faz até ter "treinamento" bastante para começar a trabalhar sozinha.
Eu mesma já passei por isso quando fui Home Carer na Inglaterra.

I shodowed someone for a week before I started on my own.
