Testimonials:
| From Students | From Educators |
|---|---|
"It is extremely helpful in facilitating my learning and grasping of dosimetry concepts, and is also being used a part of formal training for several of my classes."
"DTT provides a lot of information that was not so readily available in my formal training program. It helps to reinforce the things that I was taught. The many graphic illustrations help me remember and understand the material."
"Having recently graduated from a formal program, this tool has been very helpful in preparing me for the MDCB exam. The instruction received from this tool both during the program I attended as well as post graduation, will enhance my performance both in the exam and during my career."
"It gives structure to my learning and I feel it'll make me a more well-rounded dosimetrist. Without this tool, I would worry that I may miss something in preparation for the national exam if I solely relied on my total training to be provided by my employer and mentor."

"It is the best possible online program with remarkable information to enhance my teaching to the dosimetrists in my institution. No question about it."
"It gives me the tools I need to provide didactic training in the fundamentals of dosimetry to OJT dosimetry trainees. The testing component is a huge part of the value of this program. The ability to administer tests and track results is invaluable."
"My students use these modules as an addition to our formal dosimetry program curriculum. The pre- and post-quizzes have been valuable since these have given my students another set of questions from which to learn. As a program director, I find reading the modules invaluable as a "refresher" min-course over each topic, and I use these materials to supplement my course notes."
"The DTT provides an excellent tool to provide and/or supplement the didactic portion of our dosimetrist training program. It has saved me many hours of preparation of materials. Being online, it also provides our trainees the opportunity to study at home without transporting volumes of text."
