Class Bios 2024 The National Nuclear Security Administration’s Office of Nonproliferation and Arms Control (NPAC) in the Office of Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation (DNN) and the Center for Strategic and International Studies’ Project on Nuclear Issues (PONI) began accepting applications for the Future Arms Control Experts (FACE) in 2024. FACE is a select group of nuclear professionals that have been in the field for 5 or more years and come from technical, policy, and academic backgrounds. NPAC and PONI are committed to including a diverse group of experts from different backgrounds and areas of expertise. Over the course of the one-year program, participants will contribute to research on arms control and participate in a variety of virtual educational activities. The FACE cohort will participate in an in-person, multi-day, interactive seminar on policy and technical issues associated with different arms control and nonproliferation agreements, including monitoring and verification measures. Participants will learn from current and former arms control negotiators, inspectors, and other experts on arms control and risk reduction agreements. Participants will also engage in group simulations and tabletop exercises. The cohort will also contribute to the development of an online portal with a digital archive of historical documents, a video collection of interviews with arms control negotiators and inspectors, and an analysis center on lessons learned from past arms control agreements. The Future Arms Control Experts cohort is designed to provide an opportunity for early- and mid-career professionals to develop the skills needed for future arms control negotiations and to learn and absorb/acquire critical knowledge from former arms control negotiators, inspectors, and other experts.
