The four basic skill areas-nuclear power, nuclear fuel cycle, interaction of radiation, and nuclear criticality/kinetics/neutronics-will be discussed in detail. For each skill area, the instructor will describe the topics and the skills to be tested.

Examples of questions will be presented in depth, after which students will work other typical test questions on their own. Instructors will provide assistance, then review solutions with the group. Students will be provided with the ANS study guide, including a sample exam and a list of recommended resources for continued study.
