Description
This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
This comprehensive course provides safety officers, site supervisors, HSE managers, and non-technical professionals with essential awareness-level knowledge of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). NDT is a critical inspection methodology used across industries to evaluate materials, components, and structures without causing damage. While NDT technicians perform the actual testing, safety officers play a vital oversight role in ensuring that all NDT operations are conducted safely, in compliance with regulations, and with proper risk controls in place.
Throughout this course, you will gain a thorough understanding of the major NDT methods including Visual Testing (VT), Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Radiographic Testing (RT), Magnetic Particle Testing (MT), Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT), and Eddy Current Testing (ET). You will learn to identify the hazards associated with each method, understand relevant international standards and certification requirements such as ISO 9712 and ASNT SNT-TC-1A, and develop practical skills for overseeing NDT operations on your site. You will also explore radiation safety, chemical handling, confined space considerations, risk assessment methodology, and the documentation and compliance requirements that govern modern inspection programs.
The course features detailed case studies from the UK, USA, Australia, and Asia, providing real-world context for the principles taught. From the Piper Alpha disaster to the Silver Bridge collapse, you will learn how inspection failures contribute to catastrophic incidents and how robust NDT oversight prevents them. You will also learn five advanced expert tips that will set you apart as a safety professional in NDT environments. By the end of this course, you will be confident in your ability to monitor NDT activities, enforce safety protocols, interpret inspection reports, and contribute to a culture of safety excellence.
