Who Should Attend?

This course is excellent training for those persons whose work activity requires them to apply the various requirements of these Codes and Standards. It will enhance their understanding of why various elements are required and enable them to conform more readily to these requirements. The course will be useful to the many disciplines that are required to understand and implement code requirements. The people in these disciplines include designers, inspectors, purchasing agents, maintenance personnel, and operation personnel.

Expectations:

Course participants with adequate experience will have attained the following information at the end of the course:

  1. An understanding of the relationship between the safe regulation of Nuclear Power Plants and the Codes and Standards developed for the nuclear program.
  2. An understanding of the concepts of Code Classification and the relationship between the CSA Standards for Pressure Boundary and the ASME Standards with emphasis on CSA N285.0.
  3. An understanding of the QA programs associated with the nuclear program and their importance in the overall approach to safety. An example of the application for the participant of the program is developed.
