8th - 10th Jun, 2026
Liverpool, United Kingdom
The WNTI Summer School offers a rare opportunity to develop expertise in emergency preparedness, operational response, and security resilience within an international, specialist learning environment.
Hosted by the World Nuclear Transport Institute in partnership with the University of Liverpool’s through the newly formed WNTI, this Summer School brings together regulators, operators, emergency responders, security professionals, and radiation protection specialists from around the world.
