Session Chair:
Amanda Bachmann (ANL)
As nuclear energy is poised to grow, so is the nuclear workforce. Effective and sustainable workforce expansion will likely involve engagement, recruitment, and retention of people from non-traditional or underused pipelines. These pipelines can include community colleges, trade schools, vocational programs, non-traditional students, and a wider variety of educational backgrounds. This panel will discuss some of the current and expected workforce needs in the nuclear industry, current strategies to engage with different workforce pipelines, and best practices for engaging with new talent pipelines. The panel will also touch on how some of these practices fit into broader goals of recruiting and retaining a diverse workforce. This session is co-organized by DIA, ETWDD, and OPD.
