Contractor Self-Evaluation Report

DOE-STD-1077-94

triggers the formal program review by the ART and is ultimately submitted to the

Accrediting Board. The report is finalized, approved by the contractor line management

and the DOE Operations Office, and forwarded to the TAP Staff Manager. Guidance on

preparing the CSER is found in Section 13 of this Standard.

General guidance about a program's readiness for the second self-evaluation and

preparation of its CSER is provided here. The program should be sufficiently implemented

to determine the effectiveness of the training and the training feedback system.

Specifically:

The analysis, design, and development products for the submitted training

program(s) must be completed. This includes the development of learning

objectives, test items, lesson plans and guides, and supporting documents

necessary to effectively deliver the instruction currently required to meet

personnel training needs.

A program must be sufficiently implemented to provide objective evidence that it

is functional and effective in the training of personnel. Further, it must be

demonstrated that the various phases of program evaluation can be administered,

and that needed adjustments to the program will occur as a consequence of the

evaluations.

It is recognized that some longer-term line items, such as building a training

facility, may not be complete. These items should not deter the facility from

submitting a CSER.

Multiple programs may be combined into one CSER, if the noted strengths and

weaknesses are clearly distinguishable between programs. Additionally, some facilities

may have positions that appear to merge two programs. A Radiation/Chemistry

Technician may be defined as one position or a facility may have Electrical/Instrumentation

Control Technicians. In such cases, the contractor should submit one CSER for the joint

program.

However, the contractor must describe the program in sufficient detail such that
