Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Takes Initiative to Train Nuclear Power Experts

Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) is launching a program to train specialized personnel in the nuclear power industry.

According to KHNP on the 8th, the company will fully cover the tuition fees for the two-year regular courses at the Korea Electric Power Corporation International Nuclear Graduate School (KINGS), namely ‘Nuclear Industry Studies’ and ‘Energy Policy Studies,’ for employees of small and medium-sized nuclear power companies to foster a competitive nuclear power ecosystem.

The support is available for a total of four individuals. In particular, KHNP will provide up to 2 million KRW per month to cover salaries during the full-time education period to alleviate the labor cost burden on small businesses. Small and medium-sized enterprises wishing to participate in the support program can submit the ‘Nuclear Industry Specialized Personnel Training Support Project’ application through Sangsaeng Nuri after their employees pass the KINGS regular course admission selection.

Jeon Hye-su, Head of the Win-Win Cooperation Division at KHNP, stated, “Solid talent development is fundamental to enhancing corporate competitiveness,” adding, “We will continue to strive to strengthen the nuclear power ecosystem by discovering various support projects for small and medium-sized nuclear power partner companies.”
