program.

Four progressive levels, 37 modules, all ten major refinery process units — from new-hire orientation through advanced process optimization, with every module mapped to a federal training requirement — 29 CFR 1910.119(g) for PSM-covered processes, and 10 CFR 50.120 / 10 CFR 55 where the facility is NRC-licensed — and a documented competency check.

10 CFR for licensed facilities

Where the facility is NRC-licensed, training and qualification obligations run under 10 CFR 50.120 (training and qualification of plant personnel) and, for licensed operators, 10 CFR 55. Quality assurance for safety-related activities follows 10 CFR 50 Appendix B. These sit alongside — not instead of — 29 CFR 1910.119(g) where a process is also PSM-covered.
