In order to support international safeguards activities conducted by the IAEA, the Integrated Support Center for Nuclear Nonproliferation and Nuclear Security (ISCN) of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has been providing the International Training Course on State Systems of Accounting for and Control of Nuclear Material (SSAC) targeted mainly at Asian nations as a Japan's subsidized project by making good use of Japan's efforts and experience in nonproliferation. The course provides the opportunity of a facility tour and an A-bombed site visit, as well as offers lectures and practical trainings necessary to build and maintain the SSAC for those including "government officials involved in safeguard policy and regulation" and "business operators engaged in accounting". This paper discusses the summary of the SSAC training course operation held at the ISCN.
