Title:
International Training Course on the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material
and Nuclear Facilities
Place:
Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States of America
Dates:
19 April–8 May 2015
Deadline for
nominations:
30 January 2015
Organizers:
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the US Department of
Energy
Language:
The language of instruction will be English.
Participation:
The course is open to participants from IAEA Member States that have nuclear
facilities in operation or under decommissioning and/or nuclear facilities under
construction.
Objectives:
The purpose of the course is to familiarize participants with current concepts and
technologies in the area of physical protection so as to enable them to establish and
implement appropriate security programmes in their respective countries that are in
line with the physical protection requirements laid down in the Convention on the
Physical Protection of Nuclear Material and its 2005 Amendment, as well as in
Nuclear Security Recommendations on Physical Protection of Nuclear Material and
Nuclear Facilities (INFCIRC/225/Revision 5) (IAEA Nuclear Security Series
No. 13).
Participants’
qualifications
The course is intended mainly for persons who are responsible for designing and/or
assessing physical protection systems, for operators and managers of such systems,
for those preparing associated regulations and for representatives of the competent
authorities. It is assumed that they will have a basic technical background in, and
some experience of, physical protection. Representatives of other organizations may
attend the course, as their needs require and their background permits, providing
that space is available.
The working language of the course is English. It is essential, therefore, that
participants have a good knowledge of that language.

J0-TR-50624
Nature of the
course:
The course will consist of lectures and small-group working sessions. The course
sessions are grouped and presented in the same sequence, as this approach should
be applied in an actual physical protection design and evaluation process. During
the small-group sessions, the participants will apply concepts covered in the lectures
as they work through practical exercises on a hypothetical facility. Visits to selected
facilities are included where feasible. Information on specific Member States’
concepts for physical protection is also included.
Brief description
of the contents:
1. Introduction
The course will begin with an introductory session on international legal
instruments, IAEA guidance and the physical protection design process, which will
familiarize the participants with the total integrated process they will be working
through as the course progresses.
2. Physical Protection System Design Requirements
This set of sessions will allow the participants to determine the environment in
which the protection system will exist (facility operations and conditions), what the
system must protect against (threats), and what the physical protection system must
protect (targets). Nuclear security culture, risk management and regulatory
requirements are also covered.
3. Physical Protection Technologies and Systems
This session will begin with an overview of physical protection systems, followed
by sessions on specific systems and technologies, such as intrusion detection, access
control, alarm assessment, communication and display, access delay and response.
The results of field experience and laboratory evaluation will be presented in these
sessions, with an emphasis on the applicability of these technologies to the needs of
various Member States.
4. International Standards, Guidelines and Recommendations
Information will be provided regarding international standards and guidelines on
physical protection, with an emphasis on the Convention on the Physical Protection
of Nuclear Material and its 2005 Amendment and on Nuclear Security
Recommendations on Physical Protection of Nuclear Material and Nuclear
Facilities (INFCIRC/225/Revision 5) (IAEA Nuclear Security Series No. 13,
Vienna, 2011), as well as regarding the objectives, functions and organizational
characteristics of State systems, in general, and those of the United States of
America and of other selected representative Member States, in particular.
5. Evaluation Techniques
A brief summary of techniques for analysing physical protection systems and
evaluating their effectiveness will be presented. Two types of techniques will be
emphasized: (a) the evaluation of overall physical protection system effectiveness;
and (b) single and multiple adversary path analysis and evaluation. Scenario and
insider analysis will also be considered.

J0-TR-50624
6. Application
The functions of a physical protection system and the integration of these functions
into an effective system will be reviewed. Participants will be introduced to a
hypothetical facility as the basis for physical protection system upgrade and design
exercises. These practical exercises will require the use of all the major concepts
presented during the course, resulting in reinforcement and a review of the design
and evaluation process.
Application
procedure:
The course is open to Government-sponsored participants. Nominations should be
submitted in duplicate using the attached standard IAEA Nomination Form for
training courses. Nominations should include the applicant’s name; birth date
and place; nationality; education and experience; occupation and employer’s
address; and passport number and expiration date. An additional US Personal
Information Form (attached to the Nomination Form) for visa purposes must
also be completed for this course. Completed forms should be endorsed by the
competent national authority (e.g. National Atomic Energy Authority, Ministry of
Foreign Affairs, or Resident Representative of the United Nations Development
Programme) and returned through the established official channels. The
nominations, marked for the attention of the Division of Nuclear Security,
Department of Nuclear Safety and Security, must be received at the IAEA, Vienna
International Centre, PO Box 100, 1400 Vienna, Austria (Fax: +43 1 2600 29299)
not later than 30 January 2015. Nominations or applications sent directly by
individuals or by private institutions cannot be considered.
Language
certificate:
In the case of countries in which English is not an official or customary language, a
separate certificate attesting to the candidate’s proficiency in English must
accompany the nomination. A language school or cultural institution, or an embassy
of a country in which English is spoken must issue this certificate.
Administrative
and financial
arrangements:
Nominating Governments will be informed as soon as possible, after the closing date
for applications, of the names of the selected candidates and will be given full
details of administrative and financial matters.
The IAEA is generally not in a position to bear the travel and other costs of
participants in the course. The IAEA has, however, limited funds at its disposal to
help meet the cost of attendance of certain participants. Such assistance may be
offered upon specific request to normally one participant per country provided that,
in the IAEA’s view, the participant on whose behalf assistance is requested will
make an important contribution to his or her State’s nuclear security arrangements.
The application for financial support should be made at the time of nominating the
participant.
Other participants are expected to receive financial support from their nominating
Governments.
No tuition fee will be charged.
All participants should be medically examined and certified physically fit before
leaving their home for this course.
Participants should also make their own arrangements for passports, visas, and
vaccinations.
