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.

One of the challenges associated with COVID-19 work restrictions has been the transition of training, qualification, and mentoring activities from live, in-person exchanges to virtual/hybrid platforms. This panel session highlights both positive aspects of these changes as well as challenges associated with them. Viewpoints of both trainers and trainees will be presented. Attendees will gain insight on how to optimize their virtual/hybrid training and learning experience. We invite the audience to join the conversation to share best practices and lessons learned for code training, hands-on experiences, on-site process familiarization, and mentoring in these environments
To join the conversation, you must be logged in and registered for the meeting.
