TRASNUSAFE Project

TRAINING SCHEMES ON NUCLEAR SAFETY CULTURE

TRASNUSAFE Project

This project received funding from the EURATOM Research and Training programme, 3 years under grant agreement N° 249674.

The objective of this project is to design, develop and test two relevant training schemes on Nuclear Safety Culture with a European environment, based on a specific evaluation of the training needs. The general objective includes the four follwoing specific objectives:

i) An analysis of the training needs will be carried out across Europe through data collection and seminars organised in different regional locations; the reults will be availalbe at month 12;

ii) The links between the ALARA principle currently used in the radiation protection community and the safety culture of the nuclear industry will be clarified to reach a common approach making the attendance of managers from both groups to a basic training module possible; the conculsions will be available at month 10;

iii) Based on the results of the analysis of the training needs, the two training schemes will be designed and developed with a common generic basis module, and four specialised modules; the end of the development coincides with the end of the project (month 48);

iv) The training schemes will be validated by testing the new teaching modules by means of pilot sessions and by making corrections where they appear to be necessary; the report on the pilot sessions will be available at month 45.
