Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes practical sessions and exercises where participants carryout surface contamination and dose rate measurements and surveys. Theory learnt in the class will be applied using our state-of-the-art equipment. This course is designed to provide delegates with a detailed and up-to-date overview of the radiation protection for security system. It covers the fundamentals of physics and mathematics used in radiation protection, interaction of radiation with matter and sources of radiation; the quantities and measurements; the biological effects of ionizing radiation; and the principles of radiation protection and the international framework covering the conceptual framework, the role of international organizations in radiation protection and the development of safety culture. During this interactive course, participants will learn the regulatory control including the legal framework for radiation protection; the safe use of radiation sources, regulatory system and assessment of the effectiveness of the regulatory programmes; the protection against occupational exposure; the methods of protection and the safe use of radiation sources; the individual and workplace monitoring; and the health surveillance and potential exposure.
