Abstract
A radiation safety course was evaluated using the Kirkpatrick criteria of training evaluation as a guide. Thirty-nine employees were given the two day training course and were compared with fifteen employees in a control group who did not receive the training. Cognitive results show an immediate gain in knowledge, and substantial retention at six months. Implications of the results are discussed in terms of applications to current radiation safety training as well as follow-on training research and development requirements.
