National Fusion Skills Hub
We are looking to develop a new National Fusion Skills Hub for the fusion energy sector.
The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) is inviting expressions of interest from organisations and stakeholders to help design, develop, deliver, or govern a new National Fusion Skills Hub.
Why now?
Fusion promises to be a safe, low carbon and sustainable part of the world’s future energy supply. To meet the growing demand for talent in this emerging sector, we’re developing a dynamic, future-ready digital platform to support skills and capability development across the UK.
The National Fusion Skills Hub will serve as a digital gateway for fusion-related learning and careers. It will connect education and training with real-world job opportunities, highlight pathways into the sector, inform policy and employer strategies, and help drive innovation and regional growth through collaboration.
Who we’re looking for
We want the Hub to be co-created with the people and organisations it’s meant to support. We’re inviting input from a broad range of stakeholders, including (but not limited to):
- education and training providers
- employers and industry representatives
- skills and workforce development organisations
- technology and platform developers
- local authorities and regional partners
- government and policy bodies
- community and third-sector organisations
This is your chance to shape a nationally significant initiative from the ground up.
