 描述(由申请人提供)：本申请由CPWR-建筑研究和培训中心(CPWR)提交，以回应申请RFA-ES-14-009，在能源部核武器综合体(UH4)进行危险物质培训，以支持制定一项合作协议，以支持在能源部(DOE)核武器综合体内从事与危险废物产生、清除、遏制、运输和应急反应相关活动的工人的培训和教育示范计划。CPWR是由北美建筑业工会(BCTD)赞助的501(C)(3)非营利性公司，代表14个国际/国家建筑业工会和300多万名工人。其中11个工会组成了CPWR为这一申请而组建的培训联盟。组成我们提议的培训联盟的11个建筑行业工会代表着主要受雇于在美国能源部核武器工厂工作的承包商和分包商的工人。我们建议的计划是全国性的，我们的主要目标是通过培训能源部工地的建筑工人如何最好地保护自己和他们的社区免受危险废物作业、设施退役和去污、危险材料运输、受污染设施的环境修复或化学应急反应过程中遇到的危险物质的影响，防止与工作相关的伤害。与我们的11个建筑行业工会培训联盟合作，我们的具体目标是：1)在五年内培训920门课程的14,650名学生；2)继续对所有培训课程进行严格评估，以评估学生、教师、课程和结果；3)开展培训员培训计划，以继续扩大全美可用的培训员队伍；以及4)继续对现任和资深教师进行培训和教育。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is being submitted by CPWR-The Center for Construction Research and Training (CPWR) in response to the request for application, RFA-ES-14-009, HazMat Training at DOE Nuclear Weapons Complex (UH4), for a Cooperative Agreement to support the development of model programs for the training and education of workers engaged in activities related to hazardous waste generation, removal, containment, transportation and emergency response within the Department of Energy (DOE) Nuclear Weapons Complex. CPWR is organized as a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation sponsored by North America's Building Trades Unions (BCTD), which represents 14 international/national building trades unions and over 3 million workers. Eleven of these unions comprise the training consortium CPWR has assembled for this application. The 11 building trades unions that comprise our proposed training consortium represent workers employed primarily by contractors and sub-contractors working throughout DOE's nuclear weapons complex. Our proposed program is national in scope, and our major objective is to prevent work-related harm by training construction workers on DOE sites how best to protect themselves and their communities from exposure to hazardous materials encountered during hazardous waste operations, facility decommissioning and decontamination, hazardous materials transportation, environmental restoration of contaminated facilities or chemical emergency response. In partnership with our 11 building trades union training consortium, our specific aims are: 1) train 14,650 students in 920 courses over five years; 2) continue rigorous evaluations of all training courses, to assess students, instructors, curriculum, and outcomes; 3) conduct train-the-trainer programs to continue to grow the pool of trainers available across the United States; and 4) continue training and education for current and veteran instructors.
