User Registration
All researchers coming to the NSLS to work on a beamline must have an active appointment with
Brookhaven National Laboratory which involves an online registration process and approval. In
some cases, it can take up to 120 days to obtain necessary approvals, so early registration is
strongly suggested.

Training
All new users and users with expired badges must complete/update their training prior to
access to the experimental floor. These training modules can be completed online prior to arrival
at the NSLS. This is strongly recommended since it saves a considerable amount of time during the
check-in process at the Guest, User, Visitor (GUV) Center.

Complete Beamline Training
After checking in with the Guest, User, Visitor (GUV) Center, and upon arrival at the NSLS, Beamline Operation and Safety Awareness (BLOSA)
training is required for all users. This training is beamline specific and will be executed by the Local
Contact at the beamline upon arrival.

Complete End of Run Survey
As part of the annual DOE report, the NSLS (and other DOE facilities) are required to ask users to take
part in a User Satisfaction survey to provide feedback to the Office of Basic Energy Science (BES) and
to improve user services and the NSLS facility. Please fill in this form at the completion of your
experiment.
