FOREWORD
The expanding worldwide commitment to nuclear power as an essential clean-energy technology for the 21st century has given rise to two crucial needs: (1) capable and visionary leadership in the nuclear world; and (2) a substantially enlarged global workforce of knowledgeable and skilled nuclear professionals. The WNU partnership has focussed on both goals.
The WNU flagship is the WNU Summer Institute, held at Oxford University each July-August. This six-week course is designed to expand the horizons, and to inspire, mid-level nuclear professionals who have been identified by their organizations as possessing the potential to become senior leaders in the nuclear world. There are now more than 700 former WNU Fellows at work – and advancing – in nuclear organizations in more than 40 countries.
Building on the success of the Summer Institute, the WNU has now focussed on workforce development. Many of these WNU initiatives are encompassed in the educational opportunities described on this site.
We are proud to offer here a wide range of high-quality short-term training programmes designed to assist nuclear organizations in building the capable workforce teams they will need as participants in an expanding and fast-globalizing nuclear industry. We look forward to delivering these courses with confidence in the future of nuclear power and with pride in contributing to the expansion of a skilled worldwide nuclear profession.
