"Today, we are signing a landmark agreement that opens a new chapter in our long-standing and fruitful cooperation with Rosatom. This is the first step of the Corporate Academy towards obtaining the prestigious status of the IAEA Cooperation Center, and we see great potential in this,” Mikhail Chudakov said.

“As part of the partnership, we pay attention to strategically important areas, primarily working with talented youth, supporting and developing the leadership potential of women professionals in the nuclear industry.”

These investments in people are extremely important not only for us, but also for the global nuclear industry and, especially, for new nuclear countries.”

"Personnel sustainability is one of Rosatom's key priorities. We are creating a global nuclear education system based on the best practices and standards of the IAEA, which are the foundation of international cooperation and security.I believe that a new level in the development of partnership and cooperation with the IAEA will give a serious impetus to the training of top-level specialists,” said Tatyana Terentieva.
