Technical Competencies cont'd

DOE-HDBK-1001-96

example, instructors at DOE Category A reactor facilities who teach subjects such as technical safety

requirements, operating practice, and control manipulations to certified reactor operators and senior

reactor operators should have received senior reactor operator (or equivalent) training. Instructors

who teach integrated facility response at DOE non-reactor nuclear facilities may also need facility

operator (or equivalent) training.

Table 1 presents specific trainee groups and lists fundamental and facility-specific knowledge,

experience, and qualifications appropriate for instructors of each group. The table suggests

qualification requirements for instructor technical competency. Facilities should use the information

provided in Table 1 and their facility-specific instructor analysis data to determine the technical

qualification requirements for instructional positions.
