Since 1967 Since August 2017

ROSATOM-CICE&T Rosatom Tech Rosatom Central Institute Rosatom Technical Academy for Continuing Education and Training Mission: We increase the professional competencies of workers in the global sphere of nuclear technology to meet the goals of sustainable development worldwide.

Activity areas: . training and additional professional education of the specialists from ROSATOM and its organizations in the field of nuclear energy; . training and additional professional education of the specialists from ROSATOM and its organizations […]; . training and advanced professional education of nuclear infrastructure personnel, contractors’ personnel, operating personnel of NPP and other industrial facilities being built abroad; . selection, preparation and maintenance of the personnel qualification for operating organizations […].

19.09.2011 Objectives: Rosenergoatom, CICE&T and IAEA came to a common opinion that improving the interaction between them requires cooperation in the following areas: • Exchange and distribution of information, including joint publications; • Mutual assistance in the organization of training courses for the development of human resources in the industry of From left to right countries embarking nuclear V.G. Asmolov, First Deputy General Director of power programmes; Rosenergoatom; • Organization A.V. Bychkov, Deputy Director General of the IAEA; joint missions to assess requests Yu.N. Seleznev, Rector of the ROSATOM-CICE&T. from recipient countries.

 Small modular reactors (SMRs) are a type of nuclear fission reactor which are smaller than conventional reactors, manufactured at a plant and brought to a site to be assembled.  Modular reactors allow for less on-site construction, increased containment efficiency, and heightened nuclear materials security. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_modular_reactor

 … Small modular reactors, which are defined as advanced reactors that produce electricity of up to 300 MW(e) per module.  These reactors have advanced engineered features, are deployable either as a single or multi-module plant, and are designed to be built in factories and shipped to utilities for installation as demand arises. https://www.iaea.org/topics/small-modular-reactors
