Infrared Thermography Level 3

This course assumes the attending delegate to be an advanced, experienced user of thermal cameras, already familiar with all theoretical and practical aspects of the technology as taught in Levels 1 and 2. The delegate should preferably have in excess of two years practical IRT experience.

Course Benefits

  • The training course and exam follows the ISO 18436-7 Category 3 standard, and the ASNT SNT-TC-1A Level III standard.
  • The course is unique in that it combines practical workshop sessions with the relevant theory required by ISO 18436-7. The level 3 demonstration kits that are included in the price of the course, allow delegates to conduct their own practical workshop exercises (without having to share with other delegates), and then take these kits back to their workplace and show off their newly acquired skills.
  • The course not only prepares the thermographer to carry out advanced thermal analyses and compile professional reports, it is also structured to prepare the delegate for the final examination on day five.
  • The course is vendor neutral and delegates are encouraged to attend with any thermal camera.

Through this Certification Course, participants have the opportunity to accrue 5 Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points.
