INSTRUCTIONS TO STUDENTS ACCEPTANCE: Individuals listed in Enclosure 1 have been accepted for participation in the virtual offering of the Brachytherapy, Gamma Knife and Other Uses (H-313) course. This course is scheduled to be presented August 3-7, 2020, provided by instructors from the Advanced Health Education Center (AHEC).

COURSE: Please see our Web site, https://scp.nrc.gov/training.html for the Tentative Course Schedule and note that the course begins at 8:00 a.m. eastern time on Monday, August 3rd, and ends at 12 noon eastern time on Friday, August 7th.

All course materials will be located on a course website in the NRCs Collaborative Learning Environment (CLE). Students will be notified when the course materials are posted in the CLE and given instructions on how to access them at that time.

Course lectures will be delivered virtually by the course contractor using Zoom software.

Therefore, students accepted for this course will be required to have access to the internet for all five days of the course. For each session of the course, students will be required to confirm connectivity before each session begins and interact with the course instructors throughout the day. It is highly recommended that the students plan to display the course presentations on the largest screen/monitor available, but the course will be accessible via any device (smartphone, tablet, laptop, etc.) with internet access and that has the Zoom software downloaded. A webcam is not required, but each student must be able to communicate with the course instructors via a headset with a mic or via the mic on their device. Course materials will be available electronically only (i.e., no hardcopies will be mailed to the students), but can be printed, if so desired.

Further instructions on how to access the course materials and how the virtual course will be accessed each day will be sent by the NRCs Course Manager and/or the course contractor a couple of weeks before the course begins.

Specific questions about the virtual course can be sent directly to the NRCs Course Manager, Henry Lynn (henry.lynn@nrc.gov).
