Air Sampling for Radioactive Materials - Laboratory Exercises
Continuing education course introduces participants to methods of testing air for radionuclides
Introduction
ORAU's Professional Training Programs (PTP) is now offering a new way to experience the traditional one-week Air Sampling for Radioactive Materials course that is offered at our training facilities in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. We are now offering a blended course that contains both online and in-class training. The lecture materials will be delivered online via self-paced modules and webcasts. The laboratory exercises will be delivered in-class at the ORAU PTP training facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, where we will employ safe distancing, smaller lab groups, and disinfection protocols.
This option greatly reduces the on-site presence of the participant and the costs of travel, lodging, and per diem, while presenting all of the great instructional topics and content you have come to expect. The American Academy of Health Physics grants 16 Continuing Education Credits for completion of the laboratory exercises.
