SLD Training Slide 2
Training is a Principal Component of Training is a Principal Component of SLD ProgramSLD Program
SLD’s comprehensive training program bridges the gap between the deployed radiation detection system and the partner country’s existing
capability
Deployed Radiation Detection System
People(operators, maintenance providers, managers, technical experts)
Processes(local response, national response, source recovery, etc.)

SLD Training Slide 3
Challenges in Training for Radiation Challenges in Training for Radiation Detection System OperationsDetection System Operations
• It is low probability, but extremely critical security events that the trainee needs to be prepared to address
• Operations typically possess nontechnical backgrounds, exhibit a diversity of education and experience, and a wide range of aptitudes and attitudes
• Typically, short instructional times are allocated
• It can be difficult to accurately duplicate real-world conditions in the training environment
SLD Training Slide 4
Country-Specific Training ProgramCountry-Specific Training Program
• SLD travels to partner country and meets with training staff to assess country’s training infrastructure and capabilities
• Based on the needs assessment, a formal Training Management Plan is developed collaboratively by SLD and the partner country
SLD Training Slide 5
Training Program ObjectivesTraining Program Objectives
• Operational Readinesso Indigenous training program tailored to
existing capability
• Sustained Operationso Long-term effective equipment operations
with trained operators, system administrators, and maintenance providers

Train-the-Trainer Critical to Establishing Train-the-Trainer Critical to Establishing Indigenous Training CapacityIndigenous Training Capacity
• Prospective trainers identified early in project
• Based on the needs assessment SLD training of partner country trainers in instructional skills can be minimal or extensive
• SLD training materials provided to partner country
• Indigenous trainers assume training responsibilities with progressively less SLD involvement
• SLD encourages trainers to participate in site assurance surveys to aid in identifying training deficiencies and taking corrective actions

Computer-based training
Interactive game
Table top exercises
•Traditional presentations–Translated in partner country language of choice
•Conduct of OperationsoActual site design drawing used with small-scale icons representing equipment, vehicles and peopleoFacilitates group interactions in developing of local response procedures
•Interactive computer-based training, videos, animations support self-directed training both in preparation for initial hands-on training and in periodic refresher training
•SLD-designed computer game promotes development of cognitive processes used in making dispositions of radiation alarms
•Reference posters and job aids for continuous training awareness
SLD Training Slide 10
Discussion QuestionsDiscussion Questions
How much technical/financial support will be provided to establish an indigenous training capability?
Does this include the provision of training equipment and facilities?
What type of training materials are generally provided to partner countries?
What is the expectation for transitioning training responsibilities to in-country trainers? Is it a gradual or more abrupt process?
Who pays for sending students to the HAMMER facility for training?
Are training materials provided in native language?
