SITizens Learning Credits

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. Training is delivered through a combination of seminars and practical laboratory sessions to learn the test method. This course fulfills the training requirements for the UT Level 2 for the SGNDT certification administered by the Non-Destructive Testing Society Singapore (NDTSS). The SGNDT certification is compliant with ISO 9712 and is recognised by the Singapore Accreditation Council (SAC).
