Improving Nuclear Fuel Reliability Training Module

August 4-6, 2026 | Atlanta, GA


NFMO Flyer Picture BlockWhile the industry has made tremendous strides, preventing fuel defects remains a top priority to sustain excellence in nuclear plant operations. We must remain diligent and dedicate oversight resources to oversee fuel manufacturers with the goal of assuring supplier performance and product quality, but...

Does Your Oversight Have the Right Focus?

Maybe not. With NAC’s training in performance-based oversight of nuclear fuel manufacturing you will understand the factors that directly affect fuel performance. You will be better positioned to focus your resources in the right areas and on the right things. This is essential for achieving effective oversight and meeting zero-defect goals.

With NAC’s training,  you will be better positioned to identify strengths and weaknesses in your manufacturer’s shop using knowledge gained regarding fuel performance, manufacturing, quality, and Six Sigma statistical tools and techniques.

The 2.5-day training begins by reviewing basic fuel mechanical design, materials, and performance considerations. It uses this foundation and draws on proven methods to define the elements and approach for building a performance-based oversight program. Manufacturing processes are reviewed in detail using flow diagrams, and performance-based attributes are identified and ranked. Six Sigma tools and other statistical techniques used to evaluate equipment capability and inspector/inspection effectiveness are discussed. Methods for handling and trending non- conformances are reviewed. The roles of Engineering and Quality Assurance (QA) oversight staff and implementation methods for achieving effective oversight are discussed.

Who Should Attend?

Engineers, technical personnel, and QA oversight staff at the manager or individual contributor level that are involved with nuclear fuel design, manufacturing, receiving- inspection, handling, performance, and reliability will benefit from this training. The training is applicable to individuals at all levels of experience, from new hires to your most seasoned nuclear professional.
