Introduction

The Goal Oriented Training Programme EUROBREED or “Breeding blanket Developments for Fusion Reactors” is a programme dedicated to the educational and technical training of new experts in several disciplines involved in the field of Breeding Blanket in order to give at the same time a workforce support to the Euratom associations involved. At its meeting in Otaniemi 4-5 June 2007, the EFDA Steering Committee approved the EFDA 2008 Work Programme, including the implementation of training programmes in the field of fusion energy research. This Task Agreement covers a training activity in the field of Breeding Blanket called EUROBREED (Breeding Blanket Developments for Fusion Reactors) and will be implemented on the basis of the provisions given in Art 7 of the EFDA Agreement. This activity under Additional Support in this Task Agreement was recommended by the EFDA Steering Committee at its meeting of 10-11th March 2008 in Ljubljana (EFDA (08) 36/4.6).

Objective

The overall objective of the goal oriented training (GOT) Programme EUROBREED is helping to provide the necessary broad expert basis to successfully conduct the European Breeding blanket development programme along with ITER and the developments beyond ITER, i.e., for a fusion power reactor, comprising the development of the optimum breeder and neutron multiplier materials, the design of specific breeder blanket components for future fusion reactors, and testing the breeding blanket in ITER. The EUROBREED programme, jointly conducted since end 2008 by KIT, AEUL, CEA, CIEMAT, ENEA, FOM/NRG, HAS and UKAEA, consists of eight Work Packages (WP) entailing each a different discipline (WP, see Table 1). Each of the WPs represents a training programme unit for a trainee that is employed in the WP leader association. The basis trainee’s programme consists of educational units (about 1/3 of the time) in which the trainee attends courses in fusion technology and on the particular research field. The rest of the time is dedicated to a participation to technical work in which the trainee proceeds along, and enhances, already existing projects of the associations in the framework of the European Breeder Blanket Programme.
