Program Documentation.

DOE-STD-1077-94

The evaluation data generated at the conclusion of the program focuses on the

consistency and relevance of the completed program. The feedback received from the

evaluation process is used to modify and improve program content and delivery. The

program content is monitored and revisions are made as a result of changes in areas such

as policies or procedures, system or component design, job requirements, regulatory

requirements, and industry guidelines or commitments. Adjustments are also made as a

result of analyses of operating experience information such as occurrence reports and

other applicable sources.

5.6 Program Documentation. Documentation provides a record of the five phases of

the SAT model. These records should be maintained on an ongoing basis and are often

referred to as the "audit trail." They document the actions and decisions made during the

entire process. It is important that the records contain not only the decisions themselves,

but also the rationale that led to making them. The records should be maintained

throughout the lifetime of the program to document its development and subsequent

modifications.

Master files should be created for each training program to store documentation that

require maintenance and control. Administrative controls in the form of procedures,

guidelines, or instructions should be used to provide the necessary direction for the

maintenance of training program records.
