Abstract | A task analysis of nuclear technician occupations in selected organizations in the Southern Interstate Nuclear Board Region was conducted as part of a research and development project leading to a nuclear technician manpower information system for these 17 states. In order to answer 11 questions focusing on task performance frequency and importance, career ladders, job clusters, and educational requirements, demand questionnaires were mailed to 1,588 nuclear licensee firms. Positive responses were received from 418 establishments, from which a sample of 17 firms was chosen. A task analysis personal interview instrument was developed by the Southern Interstate Nuclear Board and administered to 53 supervisors reporting for 20 job titles covering 475 technicians. Emphasizing career ladder development within the nuclear industry, and the development of a curriculum guide for nuclear technician training institutes in the region, it was concluded that: (1) The substantially different health-related technician job cluster requires special training, (2) Secondary and post-secondary curriculums should be developed, (3) Task similarities may require common elements in their preparation, (4) Career ladders can be developed, and (5) Further task analyses should be conducted. Tables, term definitions, a brief literature review, discussions of data reliability, and survey forms are provided. (AG) |
