Nuclear Power Institute

Since its creation in 2007, the Nuclear Power Institute has become internationally recognized as a leader in developing and maintaining the human resource infrastructure necessary for the nuclear industry.

In the U.S., it is estimated that each reactor unit at a nuclear power plant needs approximately 450 skilled workers with technical backgrounds. Two-thirds of these require a 2-year associate’s degree with a technical nuclear specialization. Nuclear power plants also hire engineers from many different disciplines. NPI programs help prepare engineers and technicians for careers in the nuclear industry.
Our challenge
