10 CFR 50.59 Digital I&C Screening and Evaluation Training

Be prepared to implement digital modifications at your facility by attending NEI's 50.59 Digital I&C Training.
 
NEI and LeBlond & Associates have teamed up to offer a virtual live training session on 50.59 digital instrumentation and control nuances.  The training is structured in two modules:

• Screening Module: During this one-day, six-hour session, you will review concepts like safe and effective, design functions, and adverse effects in a digital I&C 50.59 context (e.g., combining functions, human factors, engineering evaluations), as described in NEI 96-07, Appendix D that was endorsed by the NRC via RG 1.187.  
• Evaluation Module: During this two-day, nine-hour module, you will review concepts like redundancy versus single failure, sufficiently low likelihood, and the eight 50.59 criteria in a digital I&C context (e.g., software common cause failure effects on criteria 1, 2, 5 and 6), as described in NEI 96-07, Appendix D that was endorsed by the NRC via RG 1.187.

 Seats are limited to ensure a quality training experience and have quickly sold out in the past, so register early.

Who Should Attend

• 50.59 Screening and/or Evaluation qualified personnel:
• licensing engineers
• design engineers participating in digital plant changes
• I&C engineers participating in digital plant changes.
• This event is closed to the press.

Schedule of Events

Training modules are offered individually but can be taken together to fit your needs. The content of Module 2 does build upon some of the fundamentals covered in Module 1, so please take that into consideration during the registration process.

Screening Module

During the single day, six-hour module, you will review “safe and effective,” “design functions” and “adverse effects” concepts in a digital I&C context (e.g., combining functions, human factors, engineering evaluations.)

Evaluation Module

Over the course of two days, this nine-hour module will review “redundancy versus single failure,” “sufficiently low likelihood” and the eight 50.59 criterion in a digital I&C context.
