Purpose

This study aims to contribute to the project to overhaul Common Training for Nuclear Workers (Commune Intervenant du Nucléaire – CIN) aimed at service providers involved in maintenance on nuclear power plants (NPPs).

Design/methodology/approach

The study is devised as a methodology for designing and assessing a training system (work operation scenarios and steering method) and draws on a qualitative methodology through group interviews and observations during situational training. More specifically, the aim is to devise a training system that would enable trainees to gain a better understanding of activity in the nuclear sector, its execution, its challenges and its requirements, and to make them able to think and act individually and collectively to contend with the various types of work situations.

Findings

The results of this study confirm the relevance of providing different pedagogical orientations that emphasise the activity over the previous task-oriented and top-down approach. The instructors–trainees and trainees–trainees interactions take place in an open and dynamic space with an important interindividual variability to promote active learning that is based on the joint discovery and analysis of real work by the collective. In this context, the co-presence of the participants is more important than the task at stake. Moreover, this new way of learning is a challenge for the instructors and trainees, as well as for training designers.

Practical implications

Moreover, this new way of learning is a challenge for the instructors and trainees, as well as for training designers, and has to be taken into consideration when designing training programs.

Originality/value

This operational research work is being conducted by researchers, as well as industry professionals, and enjoys special access to the constrained environment of NPPs. Several studies conducted by the Organisational and Human Factors team of EDF Research and Development (Couix and Boccara, 2015; Fucks and Boccara, 2014) have focused on the effectiveness of training. In particular, they found that to be effective, training must faithfully reflect the real-life work situations of the future environment in which the worker trainees will be active.

核工业中的新学习方式：空间模拟作为获取职业知识和工作实践的工具

目的

这项研究旨在为该计划进行大修，该计划旨在大修针对从事核电站维护工作的服务提供商的“核工人共同培训”（CIN）。

设计/方法/方法

该研究被设计为一种设计和评估培训系统的方法（工作操作方案和指导方法），并通过情境培训中的小组访谈和观察得出了定性方法。更具体地说，其目的是设计一种培训系统，使受训人员能够更好地了解核部门的活动，其执行，挑战和要求，并使他们能够独立思考和采取集体行动以应对挑战。与各种类型的工作情况。

发现

这项研究的结果证实了提供不同的教学方向的重要性，这些教学方向强调了以前的任务导向和自上而下的方法的活动。在集体共同发现和分析工作成果的基础上，讲师—受训者和受训者—受训者之间的互动是在一个开放而动态的空间中进行的，个体之间存在重要的差异性，以促进主动学习。在这种情况下，参与者的共同存在比紧要任务更重要。而且，这种新的学习方式对教师和受训者以及对设计人员而言都是挑战。

实际影响

此外，这种新的学习方式对教师和受训者以及对培训设计人员都是挑战，在设计培训计划时必须考虑到这一点。

创意/价值

这项运营研究工作正在由研究人员以及行业专家进行，并享有进入NPPs受限环境的特殊权限。EDF研究与发展的组织和人为因素小组进行的几项研究（Couix和Boccara，2015年； Fucks和Boccara，2014年）集中在培训的有效性上。他们特别发现，培训必须有效忠实地反映工人受训者将要活跃的未来环境的现实工作情况，才能有效。
