The Radiation Safety Institute of Canada has developed short workplace education courses that range from two to four hours (or more, as required). These courses address specific workplace issues and concerns about possible radiation exposure in workplaces where radiation safety training is neither necessary nor required.
These are perennially our most popular courses and can be delivered in any workplace. The material is suitable for all levels of staff.
Public awareness training is currently being offered online only. Commissioned training can be held online or in-person.
