program they will perform experiments to exhibit and measure reactivity effects. The trainees will gain hands-on experience by performing startups arid shutdowns of the reactor.

Plant systems will be taught in depth through formal classroom instruction and in-plant study. Normal, Abnormal, and Emergency Operating Procedures will be emphasized. Controls, instrumentation, setpoints, auto-matic actions, differences between the units, system interfaces, and Technical Specifications limitations will be stressed. The systems covered are:

The trainees vIill be instructed in the Plant Technical Specif-cations Safety Limits, Limiting Safety System Settings, Limiting Conditions for Operation and Bases for these limits. They will be held responsible for knowing all Action Statements of one hour or less.

Page 10 of 11 Rev > 2/3/80

Further intensive training in Instrumentation and Control systems C

and in Radiation Control and Protection will be given.

Periodic written and oral examinations will be given throughout the program to evaluate trainee performance and to prepare them for taking the NRC written and oral examinations.

Plant operating characteristics and responses to transients will be taught. Accident diagnosis and corrective actions will be emphasized.

The trainees will attend a simulator training program where they will perform plant evolutions and casualties. An NRC approved simulator certification program will be utilized for the demonstration portion of the Reactor Operator licensing examination at this time.

Simulated NRC written and oral examinations will'e administered to the license candidates to audit their preparation for the NRC Reactor 0)er ator licensing examinations. This audit will be an input in determining which candidates will be recommended for the NRC examination and will be used to identify weak areas needing further study.

After the audit examination, a'minimum two week review series, will be conducted in final preparation for the NRC examination. Meak areas and overall plant operation will be stressed, Page ll of 11 Rey I 2/3/80
