The Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards (NMSS) program area training and 

qualification program requires that an employee complete a variety of training activities, 

each of which is designed to help the employee learn information or practice a skill that will 

be important to performing licensing or inspection activities.

conducting and documenting training is being followed for all NMSS employees qualified
