RE: Radiation Safety Training Programs

[SINISTERRA@sun1.uchc.edu]

Sue:
We at the University of Connecticut Health Center give a four hour lecture
to all new personnel regarless of previous training and it covers the basics,
basic radiation protection and biological effects, plus procedural info.
We will withhold ordering privilages to any new P.I. that has not met the
training requirements.  We also give a test at the end which they must pass.
Refresher training is also required every year.
