At Prairie Island we consider the qualifications to be mentor guides, not OJT/TPE.  To my knowledge, we have not considered requiring an OJT/TPE for either using the incore detectors or modifying the PPC constants.

Subject: [Pwrrm] Reactor Engineering OJT/TPE

As part of implementing ACAD 98-004 Revision 2 our fleet training department has been evaluating Reactor Engineering tasks for use of OJT/TPE instead of mentoring to obtain qualifications. I have the following benchmarking questions:

· Has any station formally required OJT/TPE to obtain Reactor Engineering qualifications?

o If so, which tasks require OJT/TPE?

§ What was your reasoning for requiring OJT/TPE?

· For stations with moveable incore systems, operated by Reactor Engineers, have you evaluated requiring OJT/TPE to become qualified?

o If so, what was your reasoning for either requiring or not requiring OJT/TPE?

· For stations that have Reactor Engineers who modify plant process computer constants, have you evaluated requiring OJT/TPE to become qualified?

o If so, what was your reasoning for either requiring or not requiring OJT/TPE?

Any responses would be helpful.

Thanks,

Andy
