In welcoming the launch of the Government-backed National Nuclear Strategic Plan for Skills (link), Tom Greatrex, Chief Executive of the Nuclear Industry Association, said:
“Re-establishing ourselves as world leaders in nuclear energy gives us an incredible opportunity to supercharge the nuclear skills sector and this roadmap sets out how we achieve that.
“The civil nuclear sector already makes a huge contribution to the UK economy, supporting tens of thousands of jobs across the country and this plan will strengthen our skills base and ensure we recruit enough people and apprentices to help deliver new nuclear for net zero and energy security.
“To achieve that, the whole sector must work together to seize this opportunity.”
