Hosting a WNU One Week Course

 
WNU planning envisages that as many as 6-8 courses will be organised each year. Locations are chosen where there is significant local interest in nuclear technology but a limited ability of people to travel large distances for training.

The one-week course can be shortened to an intensive three days if attendees cannot be free for a whole week.

The courses are hosted by local academic and business institutions. Attendees come mainly from the host country, but invitations are sometimes extended to young people in nearby countries with close academic, political or cultural ties.

The local host institution is responsible for attracting the attendees and arranging their board and lodging. Hosts also provide the meeting rooms and audiovisual requirements. Idealy, some local “mentors” should be available to supplement the faculty which presents the course. WNA takes responsibility for arrangements for the teaching faculty.

Those interested in having the course come to their country or in attending a planned future venue are invited to contact Steve Kidd on wnu@world-nuclear-university.org.
