5. CONTINUING TRAINING
The frequency of continuing training should be on a biennial cycle and should be based on job
performance. Continuing training in technical and administrative subjects should be provided
to help ensure that STAs maintain and improve their job proficiency. Continuing training
program should not be a repeat of the initial training program, rather it should build on the
knowledge and skills that the individual gained during initial training. Specific areas that should
be part of a continuing-training program include but are not limited to the following:
C
Facility, DOE Complex, and commercial nuclear industry operating experience
C
Abnormal and emergency procedures
C
Changes to applicable facility procedures, codes, and standards
C
Significant facility systems, components, and equipment changes
C
Changes to Technical Safety Requirements
C
Selected topics from the initial training program to correct identified weaknesses and
performance problems
C
Selected fundamentals with emphasis on seldom-used knowledge and skills necessary
to ensure safety
C
Lessons learned and near-miss events
C
Topics requested by STAs or management.
During evaluations of training program effectiveness, areas for training opportunities may be
identified. When performance deficiencies or training weaknesses are noted, the continuing
training program can serve to upgrade the skills and knowledge level of the STA trainee. For
further guidance in developing, implementing, and evaluating a continuing training program,
refer to the DOE Guide to Good Practices for Continuing Training.
The participation and performance of STAs in the continuing training program should be
documented. Documentation should be in a form that is easily auditable by internal and
external reviewers.
5.1 Teamwork and Diagnostic Skills
Critical to the success of the STA is the ability to systematically apply knowledge and skills to
complete assigned tasks. STAs must possess the necessary knowledge and skills to monitor
facility data, determine if facility response is as expected, and recommend intervention
activities when required to contribute effectively as members of the operations team during
both normal and off-normal facility conditions. To enable STAs to function as team members
and fulfill the STA function, training should be provided in teamwork and diagnostic skills.
