Comparison of Global Quality Assurance NUCLEAR • PUBLIC COURSES
& Management System Standards used for
Nuclear Applications

PD634 ASME STANDARDS COURSE

Upon completion of this two-day, intermediate-level course, managers,
engineers and program developers will have a better understanding of
the major international Nuclear Quality Assurance Standards and how
they relate and interact.

Following an introduction to the ASME Section III Nuclear Power Code,
the course offers an overview of the ASME NQA-1 Nuclear Quality
Assurance Standard, the ISO 9001 Quality Management Standard,
the NSQ-100 Nuclear Safety and Quality Management System
Requirements, and the IAEA GS-R-3 Management Systems Standard.
It also compares the NQA-1 Standard with the ISO 9001:2008, NSQ
100, and the IAEA GS-R-3 Management Systems Safety Series
Standard. The course also provides analysis of the areas of their
agreement and differences.

This course is designed for engineers, managers and quality
personnel who are, or will be, directly or indirectly involved in
manufacturing, fabrication and examination of components or
structures for nuclear power facilities. Participants are expected
to have at least one year of experience in design, construction,
quality assurance or operation of nuclear facilities. They may also
have a supporting-supplier role for nuclear power facilities and their
components or development of management system integration of
nuclear quality requirements across global boundaries.
