Description
This online, pre-recorded course is an 8-hour RSO Refresher that will compliment the 40-hour NORM/TENORM RSO course. If you are interested in the 40-hour RSO, that course is offered in-person or via live stream. This online course is accepted as the 8-hour RSO training required by North Dakota DEQ for TENORM transportation licenses.
The course is designed to be taken by individuals, and is comprised of videos, games, and quizzes. Once the attendee is registered for the course, and payment is received, then the individual can complete the course by logging into the system. Proof of training certificates are issued after the final quiz is completed.
Groups can also participate in the course. With the group purchase, the number of attendees is selected. The registering person will be identified as the group user/manager, and will be able to add and delete users to the course. This is a great function for larger companies. Once the course is completed by the user, the course cannot be accessed again. If the need for additional users is needed, then more can be purchased. If you choose to use a check for payment, then email the class roster to info@normsolutions.com to initiate the singular group course. When the class is complete, only one certificate will issue, so we will email you all the certificates for the entire group as pdf files. The group can work through the course collectively. We welcome feedback on the course as we are developing other online courses. Thank you and have a great day!
