Narrative:
I was giving radar training at sector 52 in washington ARTCC. The developmental climbed air carrier X from FL310 to FL330 then switched the aircraft to sector 72 which is above sector 52. R72 climbed air carrier X to FL350. A pointout should have been made to the salem sector in ZTL since he crossed the common boundary climbing out of FL338. This occurred during a period of heavy traffic while giving radar on the job training. When you are trying to concentrate on every move made and words spoken by a radar developmental, mistakes are just naturally going to occur.

Title: ACR X UNAUTHORIZED UNCOORD PENETRATION OF AIRSPACE. OPDEV.
Narrative: I WAS GIVING RADAR TRAINING AT SECTOR 52 IN WASHINGTON ARTCC. THE DEVELOPMENTAL CLBED ACR X FROM FL310 TO FL330 THEN SWITCHED THE ACFT TO SECTOR 72 WHICH IS ABOVE SECTOR 52. R72 CLBED ACR X TO FL350. A POINTOUT SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE SALEM SECTOR IN ZTL SINCE HE CROSSED THE COMMON BOUNDARY CLBING OUT OF FL338. THIS OCCURRED DURING A PERIOD OF HVY TFC WHILE GIVING RADAR ON THE JOB TRAINING. WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO CONCENTRATE ON EVERY MOVE MADE AND WORDS SPOKEN BY A RADAR DEVELOPMENTAL, MISTAKES ARE JUST NATURALLY GOING TO OCCUR.
