RICHLAND, Wash. — A collaborative initiative among training professionals at the Hanford Site is building stronger partnerships and improving the way training is developed and delivered in support of the U.S. Department of Energy’s mission of safe and efficient cleanup.
The Hanford Training Working Group meets quarterly to share ideas on topics such as adult learning theories, teaching methods, technology integration, learner motivation, and data collection and analysis. Representation from the Hanford Field Office and contractors Central Plateau Cleanup Company, Hanford Tank Waste Operations & Closure, Hanford Mission Integration Solutions and Navarro-ATL, as well as Pacific Northwest National Laboratory take part in the discussions.
The group promotes a culture of continuous improvement and shared growth, while giving members opportunities to refine their skills. Recent meetings featured a tabletop exercise and use of the Hanford Artificial Intelligence Liaison to develop new training materials.
