It is conducted in a workshop format. It covers the various requirements of the three standards and how they each relate to the supply of electricity, community service and development, and the products and services for use in the nuclear industry and provide an environment of excellence.

There are various exercises conducted in a workshop format. Participants are set up in teams of three and four persons. These teams work independently of each other and make presentations of the results of their deliberations to the whole group at the end of each exercise. This approach results in excellent engagement between course participants as well as providing an exceptional learning environment. There is a checkout at the end of the course.
