Magnetic particle and liquid penetrant are the most widely used processes for nondestructive testing. This course provides the student with training in theory and hands-on laboratory projects.
You will spend approximately one third of the course time in the laboratory.
The course will conclude with a written exam.
Successful completion of this exam will prepare the student for Level II SNT-TC-IA and MIL-STD-410 in Liquid Penetrant and Magnetic Particle Testing.
