Bechtel and NABTU Partner to Advance Nuclear Construction Apprenticeships
The agreement will align union training with nuclear construction needs and expand pathways for skilled workers as U.S. reactor projects grow.
- On Tuesday, Bechtel and NABTU announced a Memorandum of Understanding to modernize apprenticeship programs supporting construction of a new generation of United States nuclear power plants.
- This strategic alignment builds on a century-long partnership, including recent collaboration on Vogtle Units 3 and 4 expansion and ongoing work at the Natrium Demonstration Project in Kemmerer, Wyoming.
- Brendan Bechtel, Chair and CEO of Bechtel, noted that delivering nuclear plants requires "exceptional craft expertise and a deep commitment to safety and quality."
- Sean McGarvey, President of NABTU, stated, "Building the next generation of nuclear projects requires the highest levels of skill, precision, and safety," emphasizing union training standards.
- The agreement secures a continuous pipeline of highly skilled craft professionals, ensuring workforce availability does not constrain development of the next fleet of nuclear reactors in America.
