The MOU outlines how the organizations will strengthen their collaboration to continue advancing nuclear energy and science, professional development, and member networking to support industry priorities and benefit individual members. These organizations have all worked together in the past, but now have a formal framework for collaboration. The MOU calls for regular communications between the organizations, cross-organizational opportunities for mentoring and knowledge transfer, sharing of outreach and stakeholder communications lessons learned amongst the organizations, and several other practices to keep us all working together.
