Nuclear Skills Delivery Board should accelerate efforts to build knowledge and experience
Accelerate skills development
We support the Nuclear Skills Plan but urge greater focus on key skills and relevant experience. Effective leadership and greater collaboration are needed across government and industrial skills bodies to maximise the development of nuclear skills for the future.
Technical training should include specific focus on tolerability of risk and on digital skills. This must be augmented with the development of non-technical skills for all staff and a greater priority given to human factors.
Workforce experience should be broadened, including regulatory and dutyholder roles, through secondments and mentoring programmes. This could be delivered by strengthening the 'Interchange' programme and by establishing a strategic approach to engaging senior workers and willing retirees in mentoring, coaching, and advising early career staff.
