MODULE OUTLINE

This module allows each student to practice identifying requirements for entering, working in, and

exiting a simulated Radiological Buffer Area and Radiation Area using ALARA techniques. The

instructor should correct errors or answer student questions.

A. Review an Appropriate Radiological Work Permit (RWP)

Each worker must review an RWP to identify the specific requirements and special instructions

for the job.

Suggest: Using a facility-specific RWP and, if applicable, a survey map, conduct a pre-job

brief. Have students review the RWP and survey map and answer questions regarding each.

Suggest: Conduct small group activity where one group can give the brief to the rest of the

class or provide a questionnaire and have groups complete.

Incorporate lessons learned occurrences, if applicable. (Demonstrate or discuss

occurrence.)

Record the Appropriate Information on the RWP

After reviewing the RWP and identifying the applicable requirements, workers must record the

appropriate information.

Suggest: Using a facility-specific RWP, have students practice completing appropriate

information on RWP sign-in sheet.

Incorporate lessons learned occurrences, if applicable. (Demonstrate or discuss

occurrence.)

C. Select and Wear Required Dosimeter(s)

Radiological Control personnel identify the dosimeter requirements necessary for entry on the

RWP. Supplemental pocket dosimeters should be worn near the primary dosimeter.

Suggest: Using a facility-specific RWP, have students select dosimeter(s) per RWP and

properly wear the device.

Incorporate lessons learned occurrences, if applicable. (Demonstrate or discuss

occurrences.)

D. Enter Simulated Area and Demonstrate ALARA Techniques

Suggest: From this point on, the instructor should demonstrate entering, performing tasks

,and exiting simulated area using the techniques listed in the lesson plan. This demonstration

should cover sections D and E of this lesson plan. After instructor has completed

demonstration, if practical, have student do the same.

Incorporate lessons learned occurrences, if applicable (Demonstrate or discuss

occurrences).
