Postgraduate Program in Radiation Management.

The University of Adelaide, in collaboration with the Environment Protection Authority South Australia, is currently developing a new postgraduate program in radiation management.
To assist with the development of the program, they are conducting a market survey to gauge the level of interest from radiation agencies and individual licensees across Australia.
The proposed Graduate Certificate in Radiation Management would aim to deliver tertiary-qualified graduates with the competence to supervise and manage radiation safety in mining, industrial radiography, security or scientific industries. Graduates would be trained to ensure that radiation work is carried out safely and in accordance with national and international requirements.
This program would create the next generation of tertiary-qualified Radiation Safety Officers in Australia and overseas.

The surveys will close on 30 June 2013.

Radiation Protection and Safety
Feedback of 7 draft units of competency in radiation protection have been developed by a working group of the Radiation Health Committee, led by Government Skills Australia. The drafts can be downloaded here, but comments on them must be provided back to GSA via their website (you will need to create an account in order to provide official comments).

YouTube - a useful source of radiation protection videos
YouTube contains many Radiation Protection videos that may be of interest to ARPS members. I have inserted few examples that may interest members and give you an idea what sort of content is available from YouTube. Be aware, some work places frown on the use of YouTube and block access. However, there is a lot of educational material available on YouTube to the selective viewer.
Broadband is required to watch these videos...

Emergency response competency unit consultations cancelled
Government Skills Australia had publicised a number of consultation workshops on the draft unit of competency “Safely perform radiation protection tasks at a emergency incident site”.
