Participation

This 15th edition of the Decommissioning Summer School (DSS) is taking place in-person at the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission in Ispra, Italy. Seize the opportunity to be one of only 40 students who will benefit from this unique practice-oriented training.

The DSS is financially-supported by the Joint Research Centre and is thus free of charge for admitted students. The support covers course fees, accommodation (5 to 6 nights, full board) and local transport. Accepted applicants are expected to organise and pay for their own travel to and from Ispra and other subsistence expenses (travel costs may be subject to partial reimbursement through the ENEN2plus project).
