This course will be used by first responders and first receivers who are participating in the FRDE kits project. This project intends to provide provinces and municipalities with dosimetry materials and training that can be used in case of radiological or nuclear emergency. The project condenses and streamlines just some of the services offered by the Radiation Protection Bureau, making accessible the knowledge and materials needed to assess dose in the field. These kits are intended for those who already have a basic understanding of radiological concepts and emergency response, but will nonetheless be made open source. Ideally, this course can be taken by anyone interested in the services and projects offered by the RPB, and can further demonstrate some of the steps taken to maintain public health and safety.
