Coming Back / Re: NUF Exam ????

« Last post by Rennhack on Yesterday at 10:37 PM »

Trying to find out how to take NUF independently to prepare to RE-enter the RP 3.1 world. Haven't ever had to take it. 35 years as SR-RP/ALARA and then  into ES&H.
Retired and just want to work outages etc. Started in Business with Duke power HP school in early '80's.
Without NUF is there a qualified way to get accepted as SR 3.1 RP???

We have a practice NUF testto get you ready... but the industry actually moved away from the exam named 'NUF' and developed a new exam with a new name.  Generally, the same material.  I would suggest you call your friendly Bartlett recruiter and talk to them about it... of course, they moved on as well, and now they are called Westinghouse.

Here is a link to our quiz:

And one to our recommended Study material:

And one to Bartletts material:
