INTRODUCTION The rapidly expanding commitment of the electric power industry to nuclear power stations imposes a significant demand for competent personnel well versed in various aspects of this new technology. Utility organizations with nuclear experience have found that it is very important to develop,at an early stage, technical and management in-house nuclear capabilities in view of the unique design characteristics and safety requirement of nuclear power plants and the competitive demands for nuclear-trained personnel.
The primary responsibility for establishment and implementation of nuclear orientation and training programs for utility staffs belongs to the utilities and to the nuclear industry as a whole. However, the means for meeting the unusual requirements for specialized education and training of utility per-sonnel are also a subject of concern to the Atomic Energy Commission.
The Commission has examined the present and potential availability and adequacy of a variety of private sources of orientation and training pro-grams. It believes there are sufficient resources,provided utility management develops adequate advanced planning for their use.
This document has been prepared with the principal objective of assisting utility manage-ment by providing informatior as to nuclear training and education opportunities available.
A compilation has been made of education and training programs of potential interest to utility management and technical staffs.
These programs are being provided by various institutions of higher education, reactor vendors, and consulting firms.
In addition, several utilities currently operating nuclear power stations have indicated a willingness to assist other utilities by providing a limited number of opportunities for individuals to participate in, or observe, actual nuclear power operations. Although the lists in this document are not necessarily complete, they do represent all the information available to AEC staff at the time of publication.
Most education and training programs specifically designed for utility management and technical personnel have been established on an ad hoc basis by negotiation between the sponsoring organization and the utility.
There-fore, the costs of the program, the actual timing, and specific details of course content are not provided in this compilation for such courses or programs.
We have assumed that any organization previously presenting a training program for one utility will be interested in doing it for others.
It is probably true also that each organization is capable of fulfilling other needs in special circumstances. A number of universities which pre-sented summer courses in 1968 appear willing to repeat these if demand warrants.
Listing in this announcement simply represents the fact that an I-1
organization has given a training program or has indicated interest in do-ing so.
Listing in no way indicates an AEC recommendation.
It is assumed that the long range hiring programs of the utilities will take cognizance of the need to employ graduates directly from educational institutions as well as continuing to stress retraining of existing per-sonnel.
Therefore, the compilations includa listings of technical institute,
. college and university degree granting programs in areas of potential in-terest to utilities.
The Commission hopes that these listing will aid utilities in developing their own training programs.
In addition, it is hoped that this informa-tion may be a basis for the organizations listed as well as othem to pro-vide additional training information to the AEC or to develop additional utility oriented training programs. Therefore, all readers of this com-pilation who may wish to correct any of the contained information or to add material for a subsequent re-issue are urged to contact George W. Courtney, Jr., Assistant to the Director, Division of Nuclear Education and Training, U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, Washington, D.
C., 20545.
On the other hand, utility or other organizations wishing further details on specific training programs should make direct contact with the organization sponsoring the particular program.

National Center for Radiological Health provides a number of 1-und 2-week courses at various regional centers. Of particular in-terest to utilities are the following:
Basic Radiological Health - This 2-weeks course provides professional health personnel with the basic technical knowledge essential to radio-logical health work.
It or equivalent training is prerequisite to most of the other courses offered. The course covers the basic nuclear physics necessary for an understanding of the technical aspects of radiological health problems in public health. It discusses in detail the major sources of radiation exposure, modes of radiation injury, and quantitative units and terminology used in this field. Existing standards for radiation protection are discussed. In the evaluation of specific problems, empha-sis is placed on the use, operation, and calibration of laboratory and field-survey instruments. Approximately one-third of the scheduled time is devoted to problem and laboratory sessions.
Radiological Health for Nurses - This 1-week course provides nurses with a knowledge of the fundamentals of radiation, its biological ef fects, medical uses and nursing implications, and the princip1cs of radiation protection.
It assumes no previous knowledge of radiological health.
Included in the course are laboratory sessions on patient protection, patient monitoring, handling of radioactive materials, and use of personnel survey and laboratory counting instruments.
Measurement of Airborne Radioactivity - This 1-week course is intended for professional personnel responsible for measuring radioactive contaminants in air.
It enables the trainee to collect a representative sample and per-form the analysin necessary to determine the activity concentradon of radionuclides in air, and evaluate environmt tal and occupational condi-tions. Trainees receive instruction in the basic physics of air, the fundamentals of gas and aerosol behavior, instrumentation used in sampling gases and aerosols, analysis for gross radioactivity and for specific radionuclides, and the health implications of airborne radioacitivity.
Problem sessior-and laboratory exercises supplement the lectures. For those needing on the-job training, arrangements can be made for several days of bench training immediately following the course. Laboratory experience, individually planned for the trainee, can be provided in such areas as:

-Occup1tional Radiation Protsetion - This 2-wseks course is intended for in -
dustrial hygienists, health physicists, and other professional personnel t
concerned with in-plant radiological' health problems. Major emphasis is placed on evaluation of external and internal exposure to radionuclides and j.
methods for protection against these' hazards. Neutron sources and machine-produced radiation, exclusive of medical X-rays, are considered as well as special problems associated with nuclear emergencies. Medical X-ray
~
. protection is of such importance, fran the operator and patient-exposure
. viewpoint, that a separate course is devoted exclusively to it.
Approxi-mately one-third of the course is devoted to-laboratory exercises.
Reactor Safety and Hazards Evaluation - This 2-weeks course is designed to 4
provide an appreciation of the public health aspects of nuclear facility operation to personnel of public health agencies, nuclear industries, and
~
military reactor installations. Because of its advanced nature, a degree in science or engineering is necessary. Principal areas covered are:
4 reactor fundamentals, engineered safeguards, design safety analysis, devel-opment of emergency plans, and environmental surveillance. Major emphasis will be given to power reactors of the pressurized-water and boiling-water types. Field trips will be made to selected reactors in the area. Trainees will have the opportunity to review and devise both' on-- and off-site j
emergency plans. Groups will discuss specific problems.
Chemical Analysis of Environmental Radionuclides - This 2-weeks course is designed for professional laboratory personnel who measure radionuclides in milk, foods, and water by radiochemical analysis. The principal objec-4 tives are to enable the trainee to:
(1) conduct representative procedures for the determination of radionuclides of environmental significance; (2) i initiate and develop a quality control program to insure the precision and accuracy of analytical results; and (3) evaluate radiochemical procedures i
as to their methodology and applicability to individual situations.
In-struction is given by lectures, demonstrations, and laboratory sessions i
