DOE-HDBK-1080-97, DOE HANDBOOK GUIDE TO GOOD PRACTICES FOR ORAL EXAMINATIONS. The purpose of DOE-HDBK-1080-97, Guide to Good Practices For Oral Examinations is to
provide DOE nuclear facilities (and others) with guidance that can be used to incorporate
oral examination techniques and processes into their training programs. The oral
examination in some form is an integral part of any qualification process. The contents of
this handbook can help training organizations more effectively use oral examinations in their
qualification programs. Knowledge of a subject (theory, operational interrelationship, etc.)
is always required for qualification, and oral examinations are an effective method to
determine whether the person understands the job, the task, or the evolution.
