Under the regulations, if less than 36 months have passed since a medical physicist’s starting date, will he/she still be evaluated for continuing education during an inspection?

If less than 36 months have passed since the medical physicist’s starting date, insufficient time has passed to cite the facility during an inspection for any failure of these personnel to meet the continuing education requirements. However, inspectors will try to draw the attention of facilities to situations in which it appears the medical physicist will not be likely to fulfill the continuing education requirement in a timely manner.
