The newest era of workforce development at ANS
As most attendees of this year’s ANS Annual Conference left breakfast in the Grand Ballroom of the Chicago Downtown Marriott to sit in on presentations covering everything from career pathways in fusion to recently digitized archival nuclear films, 40 of them made their way to the hotel’s fifth floor to take part in the second offering of Nuclear 101, a newly designed certification course that seeks to give professionals who are in or adjacent to the industry an in-depth understanding of the essentials of nuclear energy and engineering from some of the field’s leading experts.

The Griffin workshop will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding and hands-on training of advanced reactor simulation capabilities in Griffin.
Morning session (8am – 12pm): focuses on prismatic-type high temperature reactor (HTR) applications, including hands-on training in mesh and cross section generation, depletion, and core transport calculations in steady-state and transient conditions.
Afternoon session (1pm – 5pm): focuses on fast reactor (FR) applications, including hands-on training in mesh generation and cross section generation workflow, core transport calculations in steady-state and transient conditions, and fuel management capability.
The registration deadline to ensure software download for the hands-on workshop is Wednesday, April 9th, at midnight.
