Ksu Radon Courses

The Kansas State University Radon Courses are offered by the Kansas State University Office of Radon Outreach and Prevention. The purpose of the Radon Courses is to provide students with the knowledge and application techniques to effectively identify and reduce radon exposure in homes, schools and workplaces. The radon courses combine classroom and on-site training, with a focus on population health and environmental protection. The Radon Courses are designed to help individuals recognize, evaluate and control indoor radon exposures in any setting. They provide the information and training needed to perform effective post-mitigation reviews and optimize radon levels in all types of structures. The courses are also designed to teach the principles of good construction practices to reduce the potential for indoor radon exposure. The courses employ interactive learning strategies with experimental demonstrations, multimedia presentations, detailed lecture notes and extensive field exercises. KSU Radon Courses are taught by experienced radon professionals, who are certified by the National Radon Proficiency Program, the American Association of Radon Scientists and Technologists, and receive ongoing training in safety and mitigation. Upon successful completion of the course, students receive certification in radon testing and mitigation. KSU Radon Courses are available for a variety of audiences, including industry professionals, university students, schools and community organizations. The courses are also offered as courses for continuing education or as a part of academic credit. The KSU Radon Courses are approved by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and offered at locations throughout the state.
