RPS Refresher – Classroom

RPSs must regularly attend refresher training to maintain and expand their knowledge of radiation protection, legislation and industry best practices. This is essential for those wanting to retain their RPS appointment with their company.

This course is delivered by experienced RPA and RWA professionals who will use their own skills and experiences to keep courses relevant and engaging. RPS’s must check with their own company to identify the correct period between refresher training courses – recommended three-year period for those working with sealed and unsealed sources. Delegates will be assessed throughout the course and issued with a certificate of attendance.
