The Industrial Radiography Assistants Course provides foundational radiation protection and radiation safety knowledge. It allows participants to work under the direct and immediate supervision of a licenced RT2 technician when performing radiographic inspections (using x-ray and gamma sources) in various industrial settings. Note that this course only applies to WA as other jurisdictions require an Assistant to hold a full licence (which this course is not aimed at). Assistants are not required to complete this course as a pre-requisite to being recognised as an Assistant. They can choose to undergo self-study using the study notes provided on the Radiological Council website and then sit the exam. However, completing this course now prepares you well for the course approved as a pre-requisite for a full licence (and for which you will already have had exposure to a number of the modules).
