... The following training courses took place as part of the training program for Defense Ministry officers at the Kurchatov Institute between 1998 and 2005: 1) A two-week basic training course on MPC&A at Russian naval nuclear sites for eight groups of Defense Ministry personnel.

... . Practice in developing and operating the MPC&A systems at the Northern Fleet sites highlighted the need to establish specialized regional training and technical centers as the most effective solution to providing systematic training for personnel and technical service to maintain these complex systems in operational state.

... The KTTC Training Program The KTTC offers unique technical training resources and an operational training and resource base for training all types of nuclear materials specialists in MPC&A at nuclear-hazard sites. The Center has unique specialized classrooms for training people to operate the physical protection system control posts and for training specialists in the use of site and perimeter detection systems, security television systems and access control systems.

... The training programs are designed so that the personnel receiving training at the Center will be able to independently operate and service physical protection systems installed at naval sites in the Kola region. The KTTC Program for Technical Support for MPC&A Systems Operation at Russian Naval Sites The KTTC's program of technical support for MPC&A systems operation at naval sites includes the following: • coordination and planning of technical operation of physical protection systems, communications systems, and accounting and control systems at the sites • organization of technical service and repairs of MPC&A and communications systems' engineering and technical systems at the sites in accordance with the guidelines for technical service • delivery upon request of equipment, spare parts, and materials needed for technical service of the systems, spare parts storage, and additions • collection, processing, and statistical analysis of information on failures of physical protection system engineering and technical systems, preparation of proposals for their repair and upgrade • organization of reclamation work The Center's technical support functions are carried out by its technical departments.

... The next stage has now begun: that of maintaining the systems in operational state and ensuring the reliability and effectiveness of MPC&A systems at naval and other Defense Ministry sites in order to guarantee protection of nuclear and radioactive materials and nuclear installations. All of this work is part of the effort to strengthen the nuclear non-proliferation regime and prevent nuclear materials from falling into the hands of terrorists.

... has proven to be effective for Russian facilities and regions and as it continues to develop, it could be reasonably applied to third countries. Strong, mutually collaborative, experienced teams of Russian and American specialists could arrange initial training, including in safety culture issues, develop criteria and requirements for the MPC&A systems, design and modify or create such systems, and further establish on-site technical training centers on the model of the Kola Training and Technical Center to organize regular training of local personnel.
