The course is designed to provide the technical and practical information needed to prepare a person to be an effective radiation safety officer. It will also be useful as general introductory training for anyone who works with radioactive materials or who may be required to be an alternate radiation safety officer. (Those who have no prior experience in radiation safety are encouraged to take our CD-ROM course before attending this course. The cost for the CD is $99.)
Topics to be covered include atomic structure, properties of ionizing radiation, shielding, radiation and biological effects of radiation exposure, radiation detection and measurement, state and federal regulations, dosimetry, emergency procedures, records/documentation and transportation regulations. The course outline is available below in PDF format.
CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS - Approved for Continuing Units by the American Academy of Health Physics, The American Society of Radiologic Technicians and the American Board of Industrial Hygiene. For the American Academy of Health Physics, the units granted are 32 C.E. Units, for the ASRT, it is 30.5 units and for the ABIH, it is 4.5 CM points. We will apply for Continuing Education Credits from other organizations if you will contact us at least 45 days prior to taking the course. Approval from other organizations is usually easy to get but some require that application be made prior to the course.
Units from the ASRT may be important to California residents because the state
of California accepts these units in its program of continuing education
required for renewing permits and certificates in radiologic technology.
LOCATION - The course will be held at the facilities of Nuclear Technology Services, Inc. at 635 Hembree Parkway, Roswell, GA 30076. If the class becomes too large for the meeting room we have at this location, we may change the course location to a nearby hotel. Attendees will be advised of any change in location.
Suggested Hotels are the Hyatt Place Hotel or the Holiday Inn Express.
