EDLL 2005 - Health Physics Exam Review

This is the nation's first Certified Health Physics (CHP) exam review class taught online. This 16-week class lets you study at times and places convenient to you!

The class is held live on Wednesday evenings from 4-6pm MST and streamed live; it can also be viewed online later. Students ask questions and interact online during the class or by email. Each student is assigned an individual mentor to track progress.

Why should you take this course? Because it will:

• Benefit any health physicist eligible to take part 1 or 2 of the CHP exam who wants a structured review of the relevant topics.
• Help you identify your weaknesses and provide guidance on what to study.
• Refresh your memory on each topic and present example questions and answers like those on the exam.
• Provide strategies for test taking, explores thumb rules, and provides with multiple strategies for solving problems.
• Give you information on what to study and identify areas where you need to concentrate.

Although you cannot pass the CHP exam with this class alone, it gives you the tools to set up a regular, focused study program leading to success! The American Board of Health Physics (ABHP) has approved this class for 32 continuing education credits

Two texts are required for this course: "Introduction to Health Physics" and "Basic Health Physics: Problems and Solutions". Students are asked to order their texts from Amazon.com; full text information is given below.

Profits from the class support the CSU Student Chapter of the Health Physics Society. This class won a 2007 Honorable Mention award from the University Continuing Education Association.
