IRPA 16/69th HPS Annual Meeting Call for PEPs and CELs

Charles Wilson, Continuing Education Programs Committee Chair

Are you ready to be a major part of the upcoming International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA) International Congress? This is a unique opportunity that hasn't been here in over 50 years. The Health Physics Society (HPS) Continuing Education Programs (CEP) Committee is excited to announce that the call for CEP courses is open for the IRPA 16/69th HPS Annual Meeting in Orlando. Please click here to submit your proposed course!

Professional Enrichment Program sessions (PEPs) will be handled as if it is a normal HPS meeting (90+ minutes, most likely to be held Sunday). Continuing Education Lectures (CELs) (less than one hour, held during the week, and called Refresher Courses by IRPA) will not be remunerated this year, and HPS is only providing five of them; IRPA will be offering the remaining.

Non-HPS members attending IRPA from other organizations are also invited to submit a PEP this year.

The submission deadline is 1 February 2024 and it will not be extended. Authors will be notified in March.

We are also still looking for more abstracts for the scientific program. Click here to submit yours now. The deadline for general abstracts is 1 December 2023.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact CEP Chair Charles Wilson.

Looking forward to seeing you in Orlando!
