PER-005/PER-006 Training Program Manager

For the person who has to answer the follow-up question.

A completion roster shows that training happened. It does not show that the right people were in scope, that the curriculum matched the job, that capability was checked after a task changed, or that the evidence can still be produced years later.

This practitioner course walks training managers, compliance professionals, and operations leaders through that entire chain for PER-005-2 and PER-006-1, while keeping PER-003-2 credential obligations separate.

Who this course is built for

People who design, own, review, or defend training programs supporting Reliability Coordinator, Balancing Authority, Transmission Operator, Transmission Owner, and Generator Operator functions. Applicability varies by standard and requirement; registration and job title are inputs, not the final scope test.

What you will be able to do

• Map PER-005-2 R1–R6 and PER-006-1 R1 by function, position, assigned duties, and tasks.
• Set the annual, six-month, and conditional R4 controls that belong on the program calendar.
• Build a usable job task analysis and trace selected tasks through objectives, practice, assessment, and retained evidence.
• Define PER-006-1 Protection System and RAS training for qualifying GOP plant personnel without expanding the population or subject beyond the standard.
• Separate PER-003-2 credentials and CEH administration from entity compliance evidence.
• Apply the different PER-005-2 and PER-006-1 evidence-retention treatments and test whether records are actually retrievable.

• 8 modules and 24 lessons
• 8 graded quizzes with 46 formal questions, including four applied PER-006-1 scenarios

What completion means

This is independent professional training from EPG Solutions LLC. Course completion is not NERC certification, job qualification, operating authority, regulatory approval, or an audit opinion. Current official standards, effective dates, jurisdictional status, registrations, approved entity procedures, and documented facts control compliance and operational decisions.
