New IAEA training tool used to assist Senegal with its nuclear research reactor project

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), a specialist organisation of the United Nations system, highlighted on Friday that it had piloted a new training tool in Senegal, in support of the West African country’s plan to acquire a research reactor. The piloting of the new tool had taken place in Dakar, from December 12 to December 16. Designated the IAEA Human Resource Modelling Tool for New Research Reactor Programmes, the new training system was intended to help countries to determine and develop the skilled workforces they would need to implement new research reactor programmes. Using modelling, the tool would help these countries to address the human resources requirements of every step in such programmes, from planning research reactors to operating them.
