Hazmat Training at DOE Nuclear Weapons Complex Cooperative Agreement

描述（由申请人提供）： NTF能源部培训计划的长期目标是通过培训使能源部现场工作人员能够参与安全和健康，并通过851规则等机制保护自己、同事和社区。NTF提出了未来五年的六个具体目标。1)使用NTF培训师同行模式来培养合格和积极的同行培训师。NTF将继续扩大目标人群，包括更多的管理和工程团体。NTF将每年培训15名新教员，平均更新208名教员，以保持一支可用于能源部综合体范围培训的同行教员队伍。这些教员每年平均培训2 198名学生。2)NTF将通过与新的承包商/分包商合作，并与承包商/分包商经理和培训主任联系，扩大其培训存在，以扩大到另外四个能源部地点。3)通过每年提供一个或两个新的或更新的现有课程，帮助他们获得OSHA主培训师身份授权，不断提高NTF讲师的证书。NTF的战略培训计划专门支持OSHA安全和健康专家证书和主培训师身份计划。4)使用8小时的HAZWOPER复习作为机制，告知目标受众最新的发展，并介绍新的主题，如851规则，综合安全管理和纳米技术。5)根据NIEHS在指定的能源部地点进行的培训需求评估，扩大、改进和更新课程。这将为教员提供必要的工具，以完成目标1中的培训。课程将统一结构，目标是继续从30%到60%的实践活动，为大多数课程。6)NTF将明智地对新技术进行试点测试，以改善现有的安全和健康培训，并将那些证明成功的技术整合到NTF在40小时HAZWOPER培训中倡导的协作学习方法中。NTF正在使用Blackboard创建一个在线交换所，一个在线社区系统和一个在线提供多个课程的平台。相关性（参见说明）：该计划将培训能源部现场工作人员识别工作场所的危险，并采取有效的控制措施来保护自己、同事和社区;使他们能够安全地进行危险废物作业、设施退役和去污、受污染设施的环境恢复以及能源部综合设施的化学/放射性应急反应。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Long-term objective of the NTF DOE training program is to empower DOE site workers through training to become engaged in the safety and health and through mechanisms like the 851 Rule to protect themselves, their coworkers and their community. The NTF is proposing six specific goals (aims) for the next five years. 1) Use the NTF train-the-trainer peer model to produce qualified and motivated peer-trainers. The NTF will continue to expand the target population to include more management and engineering groups. The NTF will annually train 15 new instructors and refresh an average of 208 instructors to maintain a viable cadre of peer instructors that can be used for DOE complex-wide training. These instructors will in turn annually train an average of 2,198 students. 2) The NTF will expand its training presence through outreach to four additional DOE sites by collaborating with new contractors/ subcontractors and reaching out to contractor/ subcontractor managers and training directors. 3) Continuously improve NTF instructors' credentials by helping them to obtain OSHA Master Trainer Status authorization through annual offerings of one or two new or updated existing courses. The NTF's Strategic Training Plan specifically supports the OSHA Safety and Health Specialist Certificate and Master Trainer Status programs. 4) Use the 8-hour HAZWOPER Refresher as the mechanism to inform the target audiences of the most recent developments and to introduce new topics, such as the 851 Rule, Integrated Safety Management and nanotechnology. 5) Expand, improve and update course curricula based on the training needs assessments at targeted DOE sites being conducted by NIEHS. This will provide instructors the necessary tools to accomplish the training in goal #1. The curricula will be uniformly structured with a goal to continue moving from 30 to 60 percent hands-on activities for most courses. 6) The NTF will judiciously pilot test new technologies to improve existing safety and health training delivery and integrate those that prove successful into the collaborative learning approach that the NTF has championed in the 40-hour HAZWOPER training. The NTF is using Blackboard to create an online clearinghouse, an online community system and a platform for delivering multiple classes online. RELEVANCE (See instructions): This program will train DOE site workers to recognize hazards in the workplace and apply effective controls to protect themselves, their coworkers and their community; empowering them to work safely conducting hazardous waste operations, facility decommissioning and decontamination, environmental restoration of contaminated facilities and chemical/radiological emergency response at the DOE complex.
