Overview
This 60-hr course provides the training and education for the skillset in inspection practices using the non-destructive testing (NDT) method known as Ultrasonic Testing (UT). This is a test method that applies high-frequency mechanical waves, which is suitable for inspecting internal flaws and discontinuities in materials and structures.
