ANS continues to expand its certificate offerings
It’s almost been a full year since the American Nuclear Society held its inaugural section of Nuclear 101, a comprehensive certificate course on the basics of the nuclear field. Offered at the 2024 ANS Winter Conference and Expo, that first sold-out course marked a massive milestone in the Society’s expanding work in professional development and certification.

Talking about Nuclear Energy with the Next Administration: Regardless of which candidate wins election to the U.S. presidency in November, the incoming administration will be different than the current one – either in degrees or perhaps more dramatically. There will be different cabinet members, different senior political appointees, and some different members of Congress. Either way, proponents of nuclear energy will have a challenge in educating policy makers about the importance of nuclear energy and of maintaining or even adding to the funding for nuclear energy research and development. In this panel, we’ll discuss the issues, the challenges, and strategies for ANS success.
