Developing human resources for nuclear power sector

23/11/2011

According to Yanko Yanev, head of IAEA’s Nuclear Knowledge Management program, in order to have qualified human resources, it is necessary for Vietnam to introduce preferential policies for talented people.

Training human resources for the nuclear power sector will be the top priority in Vietnam’s National Nuclear Power Programme until 2020, says Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Le Dinh Tien.

Tien made the statement at an international seminar on human resource development for nuclear power programmes and nuclear knowledge management, which was held in Hanoi by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the MOST’s Vietnam Atomic Energy Agency (VAEA). He also emphasized that Vietnam will pursue its nuclear power program with the highest level of safety.

The seminar is part of a joint project “Development of a National Nuclear Infrastructure” between IAEA and VAEA.
According to Yanko Yanev, head of IAEA’s Nuclear Knowledge Management program, in order to have qualified human resources, it is necessary for Vietnam to introduce preferential policies for talented people.

Yanev also proposed that the country train highly skilled workers to ensure the safe and effective operation of future nuclear power plants.

Nuclear knowledge management in projects, organizations, or nations is an integrated approach applied for the construction, establishment, and operation of a nuclear power plant, he said, adding that such management directly affects the human resources, technology, management approach, document management system, and the strategy of a company or a nation.

The VND3 trillion project on training and developing human resources for the atomic power sector is aimed at improving the quality of human resources in the field, consequently meeting development demand and ensuring the safe application of atomic power in various socio-economic areas.

Under the project, a national steering committee on developing human resources for the atomic power sector has been established and a memorandum of understanding on setting up an information centre, sponsored by Russia’s Atomic Energy Corporation ROSATOM, has been signed.
