Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0003410
The **Nuclear Reactor Safety Training and Workforce Development Program** (FOA Number **DE-FOA-0003410**) is a federal grant opportunity aimed at strengthening the nuclear energy workforce by supporting education, training, and workforce development initiatives.
This program is part of a broader government effort to promote equity, worker organizing, and good-paying jobs, with a focus on underserved and disadvantaged communities, including **Federally Recognized Indian Tribes**. It aligns with **Executive Order 14008**, ensuring that at least 40% of the program’s benefits reach disadvantaged communities.
The nuclear industry anticipates a need for **375,000 additional trained workers** to support both the expansion of new reactors and the maintenance of the existing fleet. To meet this demand, the FOA requires applicants to:
- **Establish a consortium** that includes **Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs), private companies, nonprofits, state and local governments, labor unions, utilities, and DOE/NNSA facilities**. - **Identify gaps in workforce training, recruitment, and retention** to address barriers in maintaining a skilled nuclear energy workforce. - **Develop or enhance industry-recognized nuclear reactor safety credentials**, creating standardized qualifications for workers across various reactor types. - **Ensure long-term sustainability** of training programs by forming industry-wide partnerships and developing implementation plans beyond the project’s duration.
This initiative seeks to create clear career pathways and expand training opportunities to build a diverse and well-prepared nuclear energy workforce for the future.Apply for DE FOA 0003410
