This Department of Energy (DOE) Handbook, which is an open source guide, DOE-HDBK-1078-94, Training Program Handbook: A Systematic Approach to Training, describes a systematic method for establishing and maintaining training programs that meet the requirements and expectations of DOE Orders DOE O 426.2, Personnel Selection, Training, Qualification, and Certification Requirements for DOE Nuclear Facilities and DOE O 426.1, Federal Technical Capability. This Handbook contains no requirements. The systematic approach to training (SAT) includes five distinct, yet interrelated, phases. These phases include analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. SAT is consistent with other systematically based training systems such as performance-based training (PBT), training system development (TSD), instructional systems development (ISD), and other similar methods. For the purposes of this Handbook, SAT and PBT are interchangeable. The systematic approach method may also be used in conjunction with other DOE orders and directives that contain personnel training and qualification requirements.
