Course Description
This refresher course is designed to help employers with industrial or medical X-Ray equipment across Canada to continue satisfying their regulatory obligations.
The regulators, both federal and provincial, expect that a qualified person will be designated as an X-Ray Safety Officer by the employer. The best way to maintain such qualifications is to continue updating existing knowledge. We recommend that a refresher course be taken every 3 years to keep up-to-date with all changes and requirements.
Course Outcomes
- Reinforce knowledge of X-ray safety fundamentals
- Review radiation detection, instrumentation and dosimetry best practices
- Update your awareness of key federal, provincial and territorial regulations on x-ray safety
- Learn from your fellow XSOs through networking and structured group exercises
