CDP offers radiological assessment distance learning course

FEMA’s Center for Domestic Preparedness (CDP) offers responders a wide variety of self-paced, web-based training courses which can be accessed anywhere, through a computer or mobile device.

Among the offerings is Radiological Accident Assessment Concepts.

The 16-hour course teaches responders how to assess the consequences to the public following a radioactive release and how to use this assessment as a basis for recommending protective actions to decision makers.
