Beginners Training for Safe Handling of Radiation and Radioisotopes at Tohoku University    Watabe H., Ohtomo K., Mayama F., Tojo I., Miyake Y., and Yuki H.  Cyclotron and Radioisotope Center, Tohoku University    This report summarizes the beginners training for safe handling of radiation and radioisotopes at Tohoku University from 2014 to 2015. Twice a year (in May and in November), we organize three educational courses including lectures and practices, namely 1) Radiation and Isotopes, 2) X-ray Machines and Electron Microscope, and 3) Synchrotron Radiation (SOR). Since November 2002, we have also organized lectures in English for students or researchers who are not familiar with Japanese language. The training was held twice a year, in May and November under the help for lectures and practice from various departments and research institutes of the university. The training for "Radiation and Radioisotopes" is for persons who use unshielded radioisotopes and accelerators, and has been conducted from 1977. The contents of lectures and practices are shown in Table 1. The departments or institutes to which trainees belong and the distributions of trainees are shown in Table 2 and Table 3. The training for "X-ray machines and electron microscopes" started at the end of 1983. The training is scheduled at the same time as that for "Radiation and Radioisotopes". In this course, only lectures are given with no practice. The contents of lectures are shown in Table 4. The departments or institutes to which trainees belong and the distributions of trainees are shown in Table 5 and Table 6.  The training for "Synchrotron Radiation" began at the end of 1995. The contents of the lectures are the same as those of the "Radiation and Radioisotopes" but no practice. The departments or institutes to which trainees belong and the distributions of trainees are shown in Table 7 and Table 8.  102  Table 1.
