Objective:

Visual & Optical Testing – Level I & II, Classroom NDT training course is developed to meet the requirements of ASNT SNT-TC-1A, CP-189, and other equivalent standards, as well as customer-specific written practice, for training and certification of personnel in Non-Destructive Testing.
After completing the Visual & Optical Testing - Level II classroom training course, you will gain in-depth knowledge of visual and optical techniques, mechanical & optical tools, interpretation, and the evaluation of various product discontinuities.

Training Examination & Certification Requirement:
During these Visual Testing Level II classes, you will give an examination in General theory, Specification, and Practical. You are required to successfully pass these three examinations with a minimum of 70% grading in each examination, and the average grading of all three examinations should be 80% minimum as per the requirement of ASNT SNT-TC-1A 2024.

OJT Hours: As per the requirements of ASNT SNT-TC-1A, you need to have a minimum of 210hours of on-the-job training (OJT) after completion of training classes for certification in this method.

Basic Theory of Visual & Optical Testing
Visual Inspection Uses an inspector's eyes as a probe to detect discontinuities in the material. The inspector may also use special tools such as magnifying glasses, mirrors, borescopes, fiberscopes,e or videoscopes to gain access and more closely inspect the various shapes and sizes of parts. Visual examiners follow procedures that range from simple to very complex.
