Training For RCT's

[Robert Augdahl <augie@macconnect.com>]

Good Day

I work in the DOE world, I have a question mostly for other DOE sites, 
although I would be interested in how other sites would answer.

How do you train, and re-qualify your RCT's?

We are required to re-qual every 2 years. We have to re-take the DOE core 
test, the Site specific test, complete a set of JPMs (job perfomance 
measures) and stand before an oral board. Specificly I would like to know 
what an oral board is like at other sites, and how you demonstrat job 
perfomance measures, i.e. show you can do the tasks of your job.

I'm NOT at all against the re-qualify part, it's a great idea. I just 
don't know how well we are implementing it.

I have just successfully convinced management that a waiver for the DOE 
core test was a good thing for RCTs that have passed the NRRPT, but we 
still do all the rest.
