Our premises:
Building
Our modern training building has 5 contemporarily equipped classrooms, 2 smaller group rooms and meeting rooms, 1 large lecture hall, 1 X-ray laboratory including red light development laboratory, 1 physics laboratory and 1 chemistry laboratory.
In addition, the "Spürgarten" exercise facility is located on the PSI premises within walking distance.
Classrooms
Our 5 modern classrooms have a power connection for your laptop at each seat. In seminar seating, the classrooms can be used by 16 to 20 people, depending on the room.
For larger trainings and events there is an auditorium on the ground floor with space for 100 people in theater seating.
For very large events, the auditorium on the PSI West site is suitable with 300 seats in fixed auditorium seating.
Group rooms / Meeting rooms
For workshops in small groups, for group work or meetings, 2 contemporarily equipped rooms for 6 to 10 people each are available.
Thanks to the flexible furniture and the extra-large, mobile screen, these two rooms are also ideal for creative workshop formats.
X-ray laboratory
Our course participants use the largest digital X-ray laboratory in Switzerland. In the fully equipped training hospital, there are a total of 3 X-ray systems with practical equipment as well as 7 additional X-ray systems for experiments. Using numerous phantoms such as the skull, spine, pelvis, thorax, hand and foot, comparisons of image quality and dose can be made.
In addition, you will find the now only red light laboratory for practicing conventional X-ray techniques that are still included in some training regulations.
Chemistry laboratory
A C-lab with chapels and additional workstations for 16 persons is available for work with open sources (Tc-99m, F-18, Y-90).
Physics laboratory
There are 16 workstations for experimenting with closed sources (alpha, beta, gamma and neutrons) on topics such as decay modes, shielding, ranges, gamma spectroscopy.
Exercise facility
In the "Spürgarten" exercise facility, realistic situations can be simulated outdoors or indoors. Accident situations on the road as well as radiological events for emergency organizations can be trained.
Room rental
The majority of our premises are well utilized. However, we are happy to accept requests for room rental. Send us an email with your preferred dates and the room you would like to reserve.
Priority is given to our own courses and PSI internal bookings.
