Training for professionals

The Academy foresees training in all nuclear topics SCK•CEN performes research on. Most frequently organised are courses in the following domains:

All courses are tailored to the needs of the trainees in terms of programme, duration, level, language (Dutch, French or English), location, etc. Among the lecturers are technicians, physicists, biologists, medical doctors, engineers and social scientists who all bring insights and ideas from their specific background into the course programmes. As SCK•CEN staff members, they have a solid knowledge and experience in their field, and can thus directly transfer their theoretical knowledge and practical experience into the various courses.
