ATOM FOR POLAND

ATOM FOR POLAND

During the third edition of the Atom for Poland conference (Nuclearconference.pl), we will debate the place of nuclear power in PEP2040, as well as cooperation between academia and business. The discussion will also cover the aspect of financing large-scale nuclear power and SMR solutions, as well as building local content.

Great emphasis will be placed on the issues of creating personnel for the nuclear power industry in Poland – both large-scale and SMR. The period of training new employees for the emerging nuclear sector in Poland coincides with the time of preparation for the construction of nuclear power plants in selected locations. There is a need to determine the short, medium and long-term needs and prospects for the preparation of personnel ensuring a high level of its internationalization, including through the system of internships in Europe, South Korea and the USA. At this year’s conference, we want to discuss both the education system and the training of graduates at existing nuclear power plants. In recent months, we have been observing increasing interest from universities to create majors to train Polish personnel for the nuclear power industry.

Among the institutions organizing the event, i.e. the University of Warsaw and the Energy Club, we are trying, as always, to juxtapose in our discussion the heads of key stakeholders: government administration, the world of science and research, and domestic and foreign business.
