Development of Training Programs

During Phase IV, the operating and maintenance procedures will be written, and the technicians trained in their use. Guidance as to the writing of procedures and the development of training programs is provided in Process Risk and Reliability Management. 

Dr Schwan has published almost 300 scientific papers, presented about 350 national and international lectures and received a large number of awards in recognition of his contributions. He has also been recognised for his contribitions to the development of biomedical engineering and for the development of training programs in this field in the United States. 

Enhance the development of training programs by increasing the use of technology and other non-traditional modes of delivery. 

The expertise of personnel should be utilized in areas such as the identification of hazards, the development of safe work practices, the development of training programs, and the investigation of incidents. 

The following restart criteria require the development of training programs due to changes in plant configuration ... 

These personal perils emphasize the necessity of developing adequate training programs for scientists... 

The development of toxicology as a recognized scientific discipline has proceeded at a rapid pace since the end of the Second World War. One of the most important consequences has been the establishment of training programs and the founding of scientific journals and societies. Graduate education in North America and Western Europe reflects the... 

It is conceivable that quantitative structure-activity (QSAR) approaches (e.g., TOPKAT see Chapter 7) could be applied to predict response levels for uncharacterized contaminants for use in the HI approach. Further, specific submodels existing (e.g., that for developmental toxicity) could be applied to estimate system-specific response levels for application in the IT D approach. To our knowledge, there are no computer-assisted programs available that can automate the prediction of toxicity for mixtures. Much of the reason may reside in the relative lack of empirical observations and characterizations of chemical interactions. Many QSAR approaches rely on training set approaches to the development of automated programs. Another impediment may be the many examples of the levels, types and biochemical bases for chemical interactions, the intricacies of which would benefit from an automated approach. This area is a useful area for exploration.

Identify resource material on chemical/biological agents, stress reduction after other traumas, and disaster response services, and enlist the help of mental health professional societies in developing a training program for mental health professionals. The key to success in this attempt will be offering continuing education credits and certification for mental health providers trained in chem/bio attack response. 

Responsibility 1. Develop effective training programs by establishing learning objectives to impart knowledge and facilitate an understanding of hazards and controls.
