Radiation Worker II (RW-II) Training Options
Persons whose work may involve entry into Contamination Areas need the Radiation Worker-II qualification. You must have the RW-I qualification before taking the RW-II class.
STEPS TO GET RW-II QUALIFIED:
- Study for the test by downloading the study guide from this website (search for 802C): Web-based Training | Jefferson Lab
- Take the RW-II test before the classroom session. The passing score is 80%. Schedule your RW-II test by booking an appointment here: https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/JeffersonLabRadConElectronicTest@jeffersonlab.onmicrosoft.com/bookings/
- Attend the classroom session. The classroom portion covers a lot of information, including doning and doffing of contaminated clothing, how to handle potentially contaminated spills, etc. This is NOT a classroom setting to help you study for the test. You are required to take the test BEFORE you come for the hands-on classroom portion.
- Schedule your hands-on RWII Practical with Adam Hartberger at adamh@jlab.org
