At present 900 graduates are ready for work and have the necessary competences. Another 500 people are being trained in higher educational establishments to do the relevant jobs.”

Specialists are trained in several fields of expertise: steam turbines, nuclear physics, high-energy chemistry, nuclear safety. The Belarusian State University, the Belarusian State University of Informatics and Radioelectronics, the Belarusian National Technical University, the International Sakharov Environmental Institute of the Belarusian State University train the specialists.
