Andrew McUmber, Chapter President

In the month of September, Northeastern New York Chapter members hosted instructors from FEMA, who trained some of the region's health physicists and technicians on radiological incidents. Over 15 radiological professionals attended the course, PER-316 (Radiological Accident Assessment Concepts), after which a comprehensive exam was administered. The venue was the SUNY Albany School of Public Health. The course was preapproved to provide 40 continuing education credits.
