What is NDT?
Nondestructive testing is the examination
of an object or material in a manner which
does not affect its future usefulness.
Nondestructive tests are performed to
determine internal or external imperfections to determine structure, composition
or properties, or to measure geometric
characteristics-without affecting the form,
fit or function of the test object. You can
complete a diploma program in as little as
18 months or an associate degree in 23
months.

These programs prepare students for entry-level employment with many inspection companies. Students learn to operate equipment used in making magnetic particle and liquid dye
penetrant inspections. They also learn the basic principles of radiation safety, metallurgy,
ultrasonic inspection, eddy current leak detection, and codes and standards. Students
process and interpret film using x-ray equipment. The associate degree courses in quality
control provide the technical training for professional certification. The knowledge gained
by the additional general education courses enhances the students’ background and intellectual proficiency so they are more competitive in their chosen profession.
