THE CURRICULUM FOR THE COURSES, INCLUDING THE DEFINITION OF ALL CLASS MATERIALS, IS PREDEFINED AND PRE-EXISTING. THESE COURSES ARE A MIXTURE OF CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION AND HANDS-ON PRACTICUM WHICH REQUIRES SPECIALIZED FACILITIES WHICH BOTH ENABLE THE PRACTICUM PORTION AND ENSURE STUDENT SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF GOVERNMENT FURNISHED EQUIPMENT AND WHICH ARE LOCATED WITHIN 30 MILES OF GREENBELT, MD. COURSE AVAILABILITY ACROSS THE CURRICULUM AS WELL AS BY STUDENT VOLUME IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF THIS PROCUREMENT. COURSES WILL BE PROCURED FOR A STUDENT BODY THAT CONSISTS OF GSFC, CIVIL SERVANT PERSONNEL AND PERSONNEL ASSOCIATED WITH THE CANADIAN MINISTRY OF DEFENSE. THE MAJORITY OF THE WORKMANSHIP COURSES ARE THOSE WHICH ARE PREREQUISITES FOR OPERATOR, INSPECTOR, AND INSTRUCTOR CERTIFICATION TO THE NASA-STD-8739 WORKMANSHIP REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT SERIES THE J-STD-001ES SOLDERING STANDARD, THE IPC/WHMA-A-620AS CABLE AND WIRE HARNESS STANDARD, AND THE GSFC-WM-001BELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) CONTROL PLAN. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL PROVIDE A NASA LEVEL A WORKMANSHIP STANDARDS TRAINING PROGRAM AT THE E-NMTTC. THE E-NMTTC IS TO BE CAPABLE OF FURNISHING WORKMANSHIP TRAINING TO GSFC CIVIL SERVANTS, SUPPORT CONTRACTORS, AND EXTERNAL NASA AND NON-NASA PERSONNEL FOR THE VARIETY OF COURSES. THIS CAPABILITY WILL BE EMPLOYED TO TRAIN GSFC CIVIL SERVANTS AND EMPLOYEES OF THE CANADIAN MINISTRY OF DEFENSE.
