Remedial Training Methods

DOE-HDBK-1118-99

5.3 Remedial Training Methods

Remedial training may involve a variety of training methods including skills training exercises at

the facility, in a laboratory or a simulator, planned lectures, interviews and discussion sessions,

and directed self-study. The method used and the duration of the remedial training should be

dictated both by the extent of training required and individual performance.

5.4 Performance Standards

Successful completion of remedial training should be determined by testing. The test should

cover all areas previously identified as deficient and may include an interview or written test as

well as on-the-job evaluation. Performance standards for remedial training should be the

same as for the original training.

In the event that these standards are not met, line management should review the individual's

suitability for resuming those affected duties. If appropriate, additional remedial training should

be structured to correct the deficiencies.
