Background

B. Module Overview

Demonstration/activities

The practical factors module consists of various activities/demonstrations that are led by

the instructor, but participation by the entire class is encouraged. These activities are

provided as a practice session for the participant before he/she is evaluated.

This module will:

Provide the Radiological Worker with "hands-on" training.

Apply the knowledge obtained from the theory portions of High Radiation Area

training.

Review good radiological work practices for dose control.

Review lessons learned (as applicable) from on-site and off-site occurrences.

Evaluation

Upon completion of the presentation, each participant shall demonstrate the ability to

enter, work in, and exit a simulated High Radiation Area following facility-specific

guidelines. The scope of the practical evaluation shall cover the minimum requirements

as set out in references 1, 2, and 3.

C. Objectives Review

D. Introduction

Prior knowledge of radiological conditions can reduce unnecessary personnel exposure.

Using proper radiological techniques and information provided by Radiological Control

personnel will help ensure a safe working environment for all employees.

Each site shall develop a practical factors evaluation for High Radiation Radiation Areas (as

applicable). The site may choose to incorporate the High Radiation Area practical factor into

the Radiological Worker I practical factors, or develop a separate practical factors lesson for

High Radiation Areas.
