Md. college opens training center for nuclear technicians
The College of Southern Maryland has opened its Center for Nuclear Energy Training, a two-year program that will award associate degrees to graduates who qualify as nuclear technicians. Constellation Energy Nuclear Group, which runs the Calvert Cliffs facility in Maryland, financed the program. The curriculum will "ultimately provide the expertise needed to achieve employment in an industry that leads to jobs paying good wages and keeps jobs from being outsourced," said Wilson Parran, president of the Calvert County Board of County Commissioners.
