Course description

This course is designed to train Laser Safety Officers from all services and MOD departments and their range contractors.

A certificate will be issued to students who complete it which is mandatory for any LSO appointed by MOD. The course gives a grounding in laser physics of operation which then leads on to laser eye and skin safety considerations. The duties on an LSO and the content of JSP390 are reviewed. Military and civilian guest lecturers cover laser safety and human eye response and laser range procedures. The secretary of MLSC is normally present and is the sponsor of this course. Laser safety calculations, military laser technology and its applications are also taught.

No previous knowledge is required and comprehensive notes for future reference are supplied.
