[ RadSafe ] RESRAD and RESRAD-BUILD Training Workshop--June 27-July 1, 2005

[Yu, Charley]

Argonne National Laboratory will conduct a training workshop on the use
of both deterministic and probabilistic RESRAD and RESRAD-BUILD computer
codes in the week of June 27, 2005. This workshop is sponsored by the
U.S. Department of Energy. The latest versions of RESRAD (Version 6.3)
and RESRAD-BUILD (Version 3.3) will be used at the workshop.

This training workshop provides technical personnel with an overview and
history of the RESRAD, and RESRAD-BUILD codes, the calculation
methodologies and databases, special features of the code, its
application to site cleanups, dose and risk assessments, and code
verification and validation. Interactive computer demonstrations guide
the participants through data input and output steps. Instructor support
helps the students complete the hands-on problem solving sessions
throughout the workshop.

This workshop has been granted 48 Continuing Education Credits (CECs) by
the American Academy of Health Physics (AAHP). The registration fee is
US$600.00.  All students will receive the latest version of RESRAD and
RESRAD-BUILD codes, user's manuals and other supporting documents, and
handouts/training materials. Space is limited. For registration, please
contact Carole Ealy at 630-252-5677; email: cealy at anl.gov or fill out
the on-line registration at the RESRAD web site:
