COURSE DESCRIPTION

This program is designed to take the complex topic of a radiological accident response and break it down into easily understood modules and hands-on practical exercises. Students will be presented with the training to simplify the topic while developing a comprehensive understanding of radioactive material, radiological survey instruments, decontamination techniques for handling radiologically contaminated victims, and resources available to responders during a response.

An important element of the training is detailed information on the types of packages used to transport radioactive material. The course includes the use of “live” radiation sources in the practical exercises to reinforce learning. Upon successful completion of the MERRTT course, students will receive a certificate from the Department of Energy’s Transportation Emergency Preparedness Program.
