The Skills4Nuclear project aims to address workforce and skill shortages in EU nuclear fission and fusion sectors by establishing a long-term collaborative framework that integrates industry, research and training bodies. Its primary goal is to ensure the safe and efficient use of current and future nuclear technologies, including Small Modular Reactors, by fostering industry-driven workforce development and enhancing capacity-building in nuclear safety, waste management, decommissioning, radiation protection and medical applications.A key project outcome is the creation of a European Forum for Nuclear Workforce and Skills, which will monitor workforce needs, identify emerging skills gaps and continuously update training programs. This forum will serve as a central body ensuring Europe maintains skilled nuclear workforce capable of meeting future challenges. Collaboration of industry and educational institutions will ensure that training curricula are aligned with the latest technological advancements and safety standards.The project also includes the development of a Nuclear Skills Strategy, a multi-annual roadmap guiding efforts to attract, retrain, upskill and reskill professionals for the nuclear sector. The strategy will promote a fair shift to nuclear energy, prioritizing diversity, inclusion and gender balance. A pilot action based on this strategy will be implemented in Poland.Another significant outcome is the implementation of reskilling and upskilling programs enabling workers from other industries, such as fossil fuels, to transition into nuclear roles. These programs will prepare the workforce for advanced technologies like SMRs and fusion with a strong focus on safety and innovation.The project will also develop a series of recommendations and tools aimed at attracting more people to the nuclear sector. This will include broad range of tools which will be tested via a small pilot project and then made available to the wider nuclear communities.
