Advanced NDT Training Courses
The increasing use of advanced ultrasonic testing techniques for the inspection of industrial plants and structures has prompted us at Sonovation to design our NDT training courses to transfer this knowledge. We offer NDT training courses for Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Time of Flight Diffraction (TOFD) and Phased Array (PA) with trainers who have a broad practical and theoretical knowledge gained over many years.
Courses are available to obtain either a formal NDT qualification or according to client needs, such as training for managers and design engineers or for quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) personnel to interpret and review NDT inspection results.
We are accredited to offer NDT training courses for UT, TOFD and PA in accordance with the International Standard ISO 9712 (former European Standard EN 473) and can also offer courses to the recommended practices of the American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT). Our courses are held in English, German, and Dutch languages.
