ETEC's Nuclear Opportunities Workshop was held on August 1 & 2 at the Hilton Knoxville Airport with over 400 industry professionals and students in attendance.
|
At the event Roane State Community College announced the launch of a Nuclear Technology Program with a $100,000 contribution from UT-Battelle, LLC, which manages and operates Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) for DOE.
|
ORNL's interim director, Jeff Smith also talked about positive attributes the State of Tennessee has to attract companies. Workforce is one, but there are gaps to be filled. ORNL, with input from ETEC's Nuclear Working Group, compiled a workforce 'map' titled Nuclear Is Here. Conference participants were invited to give feedback on the future workforce needed for the nuclear industry.
