Development of a quality program for training to nuclear power plant operations personnel

A Quality Programme for Training (QPT) was developed within the framework of the multidisciplinary Quality Assurance System designed by Tecnatom. This QPT is a document developing the Quality principles contained in the Tecnatom Quality Manual to be applicable to training. A brief description is given of the content of all chapters of the QPT, i.e. introduction, organization (subdivided into three parts: description of the organization, functional responsibilities, and personnel qualification), analysis control, design control, development control, implementation control, training system, evaluation control, procedures and instructions, training facilities, equipment and training materials, documents and records control, and other quality assurance criteria (subdivided into the following parts: audits, non-conforming materials equipment, services and processes, and corrective actions).
