Division Spotlight
Young Members Group
The Young Members Group works to encourage and enable all young professional members to be actively involved in the efforts and endeavors of the Society at all levels (Professional Divisions, ANS Governance, Local Sections, etc.) as they transition from the role of a student to the role of a professional. It sponsors non-technical workshops and meetings that provide professional development and networking opportunities for young professionals, collaborates with other Divisions and Groups in developing technical and non-technical content for topical and national meetings, encourages its members to participate in the activities of the Groups and Divisions that are closely related to their professional interests as well as in their local sections, introduces young members to the rules and governance structure of the Society, and nominates young professionals for awards and leadership opportunities available to members.

Educational Session|Panel|Sponsored by Plant Reliability
Monday, August 5, 2024|1:30–3:00PM EDT|Banyan 2
This session builds on Session 1 and will focus on the organizational behaviors that enable high levels of equipment performance. After all, INPO IER L2-21-4 clearly identifies key behaviors that are needed to be consistently implemented in order to achieve and sustain high levels of plant reliability. This session will highlight examples of utilities instilling a culture of excellence in equipment reliability through the use of cross-functional teamwork and ownership/accountability. In addition to the actions each utility has taken in direct response to IER L2-21-4, utilities continue to develop methods to continuously monitor and improve behaviors related to improving plant equipment. The speakers in this session will highlight the actions taken by their organization to drive equipment performance improvements, the impetus for those actions, and the benefits realized.
