SSDL Calibration Education

Setting up a dosimetry calibration lab poses great challenges to anyone who has to start from scratch.  
This three-day training course covers all major aspects of a Dosimetry Calibration Lab in theory and practice. It aims to provide participants with a fundamental knowledge about how to select the necessary components, how to design calibration procedures and how to maintain the measuring quantities.
Particular emphasis is placed on the Laboratory Standard ISO 17025 and efficient generation of radiation qualities.   
The training course is held by experienced professionals at the PTW headquarters in Freiburg, Germany, where PTW operates a leading SSDL for dosimetric quantities.

With its mix of lectures, demonstrations and hands-on sessions, it primarily targets radiation specialists and technical staff with no or little experience in setting up a calibration lab who want to acquire the necessary knowledge and techniques in a practical work-oriented atmosphere.
