Radiant is Epic's radiology application. These courses focus on Radiant tools and workflows for specific user groups.
Many of these courses are accessed online with additional content provided by the department.
A supervisor or HR coordinator needs to register staff for training via ERMA. The drop-down menus below have the correct session number to register staff. Once registered, staff will receive a message to their UIowa email address with instructions for completing their Epic training on ICON.
Epic access will typically update within 2 business days of completing all Epic Education training. If you have not noticed a change in your Epic access after 2 business days, you may contact the help desk at 319-356-0001.
