Description
The Ultrasonic Testing Levels 1 and 2 eLearning training courses are both divided in four modules:
• Module 1: Basic Principles of Ultrasound and Ultrasound Testing
• Module 2: Zero-Degree Ultrasonic Testing
• Module 3: Angled Ultrasonic Testing
• Module 4: Review
Students attending the UT Level 2 training will go through each topic in more depth.
Each module contains:
• Pages explaining the underlying theory.
• Videos explaining the theoretical and practical aspects of Ultrasonic Testing,
Silverlight interactive exercises in which the student can build a set-up, practice calibration and scanning
and learn to evaluate real data.
• A test section for self-evaluation
At the end of your online training phase, an online test will enable you to decide whether you are ready for the classroom
element of the course, or if you need further time to study.
When you have booked your online training, you will receive an email notification with your login details. You will then
have 60 days from first login to complete your eLearning course.
