The goal of simulator training is to provide realistic hands-on training in the areas of normal and transient operations such that the quality of plant operations is improved.

Operations Management should periodically establish short and long term goals aimed at improving operator performance. Training which enhances procedural compliance, self checking, communications and teamwork shall be strived for during simulator training.

2.0 SIMU. A TOR STANDARDS 2.1 S'rr ulator training standards of performance are defined by Operations Mer,agement, the Training Department, and the Nuclear Training Manual (NTM). j These standards are the same as in-plant performance expectations and include the tell1 wing:

1. Training evolutions will be conducted in accordance with Operations Management expectations, policies, and procedures.

2. Trainees will provide constructive feedback for continuous improvement of training programs.

3.0 MANAGEMENT EXPECTATIONS 3.1 The following behaviors are management expectations for operator performance in the simulator. Operator performance should be monitored to determine if the operators are meeting these expectations:

1. Perform as if the scenario were actually occurring in the plant.

2. Perform assigned tasks and still remain aware of transient development.

c

3. Understand how their actions or inactions impact plant operation.

4. Anticipate the crew's course of action based on transient development.

5. Pursue all possible success paths in an attempt to restore equipment / systems.

6. Properly use Technical Specifications, TRM, procedures, and prints.

7. Understand the bases for actions in the EOP's and ONP's.

O 8. Communicate in accordance with the requirements of Section 4 of this Manual.

9. Operate in a conservative fat hion, bearing in mind the health and safety of the pub!!c and their fellow operators.

10. Perform tasks confidently with crew and SM/US direction / concurrence.

11. Make recommendations, challenge faulty crew direction, catch / correct mistakes in a way that enhances crew performance and self-esteem.

12. Respond receptively to and act on constructive criticism for the purpose of improving individual and team performance.

13. Generate CRs or Work Observation Feedback when it is determined that improvements can be made to operational or administrative procedures.

4.0 SIMULATOR MONITORING 4.1 The purpose of simulator monitoring is to enhance simulator training by providing Operations Management expectations and operational experience during training sessions. Monitors should interface with the instructor prior to the scenario, and provide feedback to the instructors after the scenario.

5.0 SIMULATOR OPERATING ISSUES 5.1 Operational questions may arise concerning management expectations.

Training will defer to the Operations Manager for guidance. Training personnel will document the issue (s) and additional action (s) to be taken (such as procedure changes)if applicable. The Operations Liaison will periodically review these issues to ensure long term solutions are determined and to verify each item is closed out when the long term solutions have been implemented. In the absence of an ops liaison, the Assistant Operations Manager will perform this responsibility.

6.0 SIMULATOR CRITIQUES Shift Management should be aware of specific crew strengths and weaknesses. The simulator critique allows a crew to self- evaluate their performance. The Shift Manager is responsible for facilitating the post-scenario critique. Shift Management

- shall ensure that Operations Management expectations are reinforced and that overall crew performance is enhanced as a result of the self-critique process. To facilitate the simulator critique process, critique forms will be completed during the critique.
