The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Packaging Certification Program (PCP), Office of Packaging and Transportation has sponsored a suite of training courses that have been conducted since the early 1990's. More recently, PCP has developed an online tutorial - RAM Packaging Safety Tutorial, as well as several courses developed and taught by several U.S national laboratories. The courses developed and taught by the national laboratories are referred to as the DOE Packaging University. Since 2013 as part of the Packaging University, the DOE PCP has worked with the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) Mechanical Engineering Department to develop an accredited graduate-level certificate in Nuclear Packaging. This paper provides an overview of the currently offered PCP courses, as well as the UNR graduate certificate in Nuclear Packaging. (authors)
