(Register Early...Call 1-800-678-IEEE and ask for Standards Seminars)

This seminar has been developed to familiarize nuclear plant designers,
engineers, and systems management with the concepts, terms, issues, and
significant benefits relating to Human Factors Engineering (HFE). The training
this course provides enables attendees to recognize human factors problems
early on and to apply the HFE approach to minimize and prevent human error and
maximize plant safety at nuclear power facilities.  Comprised of a series of
creative and informative lectures and workshops, this specialized course will
demonstrate how human factors principles can reduce your operating, training
and maintenance costs as it emphasizes task integration, task analysis and HFE
environmental concerns.  In accordance with the IEEE standard upon which this
