How does it work?
The Nuclear Professionalism Standard is organised into three sections, each focusing on specific areas of competence. Each of the competences is written in a generic, jargon free language, which means that you can interpret the standard in the context of the particular work you do whether its engineering, research, waste management, safety, finance and investment, management and administration or any other role in nuclear.
