Dear TRIUMF Users and Experimenters,
I apologize for the additional email. The last section of the previous
email sent was not formatted properly and was confusing. Please refer to
this email for information regarding the visitor procedures and training
requirements.
Below please find information regarding TRIUMF's visitor procedures and
training requirements for visitors, users, and experimenters. Please
read the message below so that you are advised on the steps to be taken
before coming to TRIUMF.
_*Visitor Procedures*_
TRIUMF has recently implemented a "Visitor App" online. This online form
is replacing the PDF visitor forms (ie. the Visitor/Users Registration
Form
<http://www.triumf.ca/sites/default/files/VISITORS%20Registration%20Form2-saveable_0.pdf>,
the Access Privileges Form
<http://www.triumf.ca/sites/default/files/ACCESS%2BPRIVILEDGES%2BFORM_dec13.pdf>,
the Radiation Badge Request Form
<http://www.triumf.ca/sites/default/files/Visitor%20Radiation%20Badge%20Application_fillable.pdf>,
etc). Your TRIUMF contact will need to fill out the online form for you
before your visit (https://mis.triumf.ca/admin/visit/). When your visit
has been approved by an admin assistant, you will be notified and you
will need to enter some personal information before your visit (ie. the
name of your institution, emergency contact information, etc). You will
also be notified of the training programs that you are required to take
before your visit and/or when you arrive at TRIUMF. Please note that if
you are a spokesperson for an experiment and have a lot of people coming
with you for an experiment, your TRIUMF contact can click a checkbox to
"Allow the visitor [you] to invite their own subordinates". If this is
the case, you will be able to invite your fellow experimenters using the
Visitor App, https://mis.triumf.ca/admin/visit/. You will need to login
with the same credentials you use for the Sciences Apps (ie. the
Spokespersons' Portal or Dashboard).
Please note that if you or your fellow experimenters need a formal
letter of invitation, they can be requested through the Physical
Sciences Administrative Assistant.
If you have questions or feedback regarding the visitor application,
please feel free to contact Jens Dilling.
_*Training Information*_
As you may know, TRIUMF updated the TRIUMF Safety Orientation in
November 2014 and experimenters that have not taken the updated Safety
Orientation must do so before being able to be on the TRIUMF site
without direct supervision (ie. before you will be able to have an
access card). The safety training can be found at
http://www.triumf.ca/training. /Depending on the experiment, additional
safety training may need to be taken. Your TRIUMF contact should
indicate on the Visitors App the additional training that needs to be
taken (ie. calibration sources training).
/In addition to the above training, TRIUMF has introduced a Basic
Radiation Protection Training, that also must be taken before being able
to be on the TRIUMF site without direct supervision. This can also be
found at http://www.triumf.ca/training.
In addition to both of the above training programs, TRIUMF has
introduced Building Access Training. This training will be completed
when experimenters arrive at TRIUMF, before they start work in an area
which requires the training. Your TRIUMF contact should organize this
training for you.
In addition to the above, for muSR experiments, experimenters need to
take the Personnel Safety Alarms Training before arrival at TRIUMF, this
can also be found online at http://www.triumf.ca/training. Once both the
TRIUMF Safety Orientation and the Personnel Safety Alarms Training are
completed, there is also on-the-job training to be completed for Working
in Exclusion Areas, once you arrive at TRIUMF.
If you have any questions regarding the training requirements, please do
not hesitate to contact Jens Dilling.
All the best,
Niki Martin
for Jens Dilling
