International RPO training
Online RPO training delivered direct to your company or organisation, anywhere in the world 24/7
Over many years Ionactive has delivered Radiation Protection Officer (RP0) training in the Gulf, principally 3-4 courses each year in Dubai with a UAE based training partner. As market conditions and expectations change, we are updating our services to meet client needs. We are now offering training services online direct to companies and organisations.
The online RPO courses are based on IAEA radiation safety standards and are delivered by the Ionactive online training system created by Mark Ramsay - Qualified Expert (Radiation Protection Adviser) and Chartered Radiation Protection Professional.

Onsite RPO training courses
We will be available to deliver onsite RPO training courses outside the UK when travel conditions allow. You cannot therefore book onsite RPO courses from this page at this time. However, feel free to read on and discover what we have been offering over many years - the online RPO course cannot offer you the sun in Dubai, but the same quality of training is delivered via rich multimedia.
Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, UAE and further afield.
We will deliver a 3-5 day course designed for your specific needs covering your use of ionising radiation. X-ray and radioactive materials for use in medical, industrial, quality assurance and security etc can be included. We can also provide a radiation awareness level course over one day.
Please use the contact form below, or contact mark.ramsay@ionactive.co.uk directly for a quote. There is no minimum number of delegates we will train, however we are likely to offer the best fixed price proposal (for up to 8 delegates initially), if you maximise your delegate numbers. Short on delegates - how about partnering with another local company and hosting together?

Modern IT facilities allows us to deliver a training presentation direct in your training room. Onsite training also allows for the possibility of a ‘walk and talk’ training session around your work area (this is an advantage compared to attending an offsite training venue). By attending your company location we can also include a practical session if required (for example radiation monitoring around your ionising radiation sources).
Ionactive has been involved in delivering RPO training to many delegates across the Gulf and beyond. Examples include delegates from Dubai Customs, Dubai Airport, Emirates Air, Etihad Air, ADNOC, ENOC, SEHA Group, EMAAR Group, Jumeirah Group of Hotels, Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power, Bahrain Customs, Bahrain Tatweer Petroleum, Mattex Group (UAE), Smiths Detection, Rapiscan Systems and many more. Our RPO courses will be designed around your use of ionising radiation so maximising the training advantage for all delegates.
Why use Ionactive? We are Qualified Experts (Radiation Protection Adviser) to many of the companies that supply the radiation sources you may be using in your workplace. Examples include appointed Adviser to GE Healthcare, Philips Healthcare, Elekta Oncology, Rapiscan Systems, Smiths Detection and many others. Therefore during the RPO training we can offer specific advice on radiation safety as well as assistance in applying for licenses from your regulator (e.g FANR in UAE, Ministry of Environment in Qater, Environment Authority in Bahrain, etc), and writing your radiation safety programmes and local rules.

What people think of Ionactive’s International RPO training
Well done on the course, I thought it worked very well and it's good to have something that you can pick up when you have time.
Thank You for a well-executed course Monday and Tuesday. It was a pleasure to see how assertive you were by paying attention to ALL delegates at the same time and making the course content relevant for one and all. I’ve recommended it highly to our base managers as I see others within our organization that could benefit from it
Main objective was to understand radioactive materials better and you have certainly fulfilled this for me. Excellent content and well delivered. Thank you.
Thanks Mark. Just wanted to say I really enjoyed the course, it was really well presented throughout and kept me engaged!
Many thanks for the follow up both prior, and now correspondences, on what was an excellent well delivered and well managed course by yourselves / RNA , and of course the tutor QE , Mark Ramsey. It certainly does promote further study and learning, with the engagement that everyone showed , very professionally.
First, let me to express my gratitude to the one of the most interesting course that I have attended. It was an informatively value course. Congratulation for you also for this great arrangement and the success of your courses.
Good morning! Thank you very much for bringing such a wonderful learning opportunity to us here in the UAE! Thank you too for the superb organization of the event! Good luck to future trainings and events with RNA Safety!
Great course. Definitely took me 5 days not 2 though!! Mark always helpful and prompt when support required. Definitely recommend this course.
I found material very well presented and helpful, legislation is bit dry but it is what it is. I enjoyed this course. It's definitely the best ever online course I have done.
