Saskatchewan Nuclear 30 PDH Discount Package

This online engineering PDH course provides a basic understanding of instrumentation and control necessary for safe operation and maintenance of energy facilities and their support systems. In particular, this course describes the principles of radiation detection, detector operation, circuit operation, and specific radiation detector applications.

 

This 6 PDH online course is applicable to industrial and nuclear engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of radiation detectors.

This online engineering PDH course presents the regulations, policies and procedures for the safe use and handling of radioactive materials and radiation generating devices. It describes the effects of radiation and how to minimize the dangers present in a radiation filled environment.

 

Nuclear chemicals are present in many modern facilities. It is often harnessed as a cleaner source of energy than fossil fuels. However, the energy stored in these volatile chemicals may lead to many dangers. Consequently, it is very important to strictly regulate how to handle these chemicals in order to protect employees working in hazardous environments.

 

This 7 PDH online course is applicable to nuclear, chemical, and safety engineers and other technical professionals who are interested in gaining a better understanding about the requirements of protecting workers from radioactive materials.

This online engineering PDH course presents information about the conduct of radiological work in accordance with the department of energy regulations. The sections in this course focus on planning and preparation of radiological work, entry and exit requirements, radiological work controls, evaluation performance, special applications, as well as design and control.

 

DOE regulations for occupational radiation protection require written authorizations to control access to and work in radiological areas. The level of detail included in such authorizations is dependent upon facility hazards and the nature of the work force. Technical requirements for the conduct of work, including construction, modifications, operations, maintenance, and decommissioning, should incorporate radiological criteria to ensure safety and maintain radiation exposures as low as reasonably possible.

 

This 4 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, design and construction personnel, and other technical professionals who are interested in gaining a better understanding on the conduct of radiological work.

This online engineering PDH course provides a fundamental understanding of reactor theory and neutron characteristics. It discusses basic topics such as neutron sources, neutron flux, neutron cross sections, reaction rates, neutron moderation, and prompt and delayed neutrons.

 

This 3 PDH online course is applicable to industrial and nuclear engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of reactor theory.

This online engineering PDH course presents specific parameters of a nuclear reactor including the neutron life cycle, reactivity and reactivity coefficients, neutron poisons, and control rods:

• Neutron Life Cycle is the series of steps that fission neutrons go through as they slow to thermal energies and are absorbed in the reactor.
• Reactivity is a measure of the departure of a reactor from criticality. Reactivity coefficients are useful in quantifying the reactivity change that will occur due to the change in a physical property such as the temperature of the moderator or fuel.
• Neutron Poisons are absorbing materials intentionally designed into the reactor for specific purposes including remove neutrons from the reactor.
• Control Rods are made of neutron absorbing materials and used to adjust the reactivity of the core.

 

This 4 PDH online course is applicable to industrial and nuclear engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of the nuclear parameters of a rector.

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance for implementing specific controls over radioactive materials in accordance with the department of energy regulations DOE-STD-1098-2017.

 

The information presented in this course focuses on radioactive material identification, storage, control, release, transportation, and waste management. These measures should be implemented by affected line managers, workers, and support staff to ensure proper fulfillment of their radiological control responsibilities.

 

This 2 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, design and construction personnel, and other technical professionals who are interested in gaining a better understanding on the handling of radioactive materials.

This online engineering PDH course introduces specific topics including sub-critical multiplication, reactor kinetics, and reactor operation.

 

Subcritical multiplication is the phenomenon that accounts for the changes in neutron flux that takes place in a subcritical reactor due to reactivity changes. It is important to understand subcritical multiplication in order to understand reactor response (reactor kinetics) to changes in conditions. Reactor Kinetics is the response of neutron flux and reactor power to changes in reactivity. As such, it is also important to understand the principles that determine how a reactor responds during all modes of operation.

 

This 3 PDH online course is applicable to industrial and nuclear engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of the reactor operations.

This online engineering PDH ethics course is (1) the study of moral issues and decisions confronting individuals and organizations involved in engineering and (2) the study of related questions about moral conduct, character, ideals and relationships of peoples and organizations involved in technological development (Martin and Schinzinger, Ethics in Engineering).

 

This course will address the principles of engineering ethics that every engineer is expected to live by when practicing their profession. It will also present unique ethical case studies randomly selected to demonstrate ethical challenges for professional engineers and alternatives to address these challenges.

 

This 1 PDH online course is applicable to Professional Engineers licensed in the Province of Saskatchewan and who are required to demonstrate continuing professional competency in engineering ethics as a condition of their license renewal. For each renewal period, every licensee must complete at least one (1) professional development hour relative to the principals of professional responsibility, conduct and ethics.
