Certification / Awarding Body:



Objectives:

• to list radiographic techniques
• to state origins of defects
• to recognise and differentiate between film artefacts and defect indications
• to interpret radiographs
• to meet the syllabus for CSWIP/PCN Level 2.

Additional Information:

It is required that course attendees have knowledge of radiographic theory and it is strongly recommended that those with little or no theoretical radiographic knowledge attend Radiographic Interpretation (Part A) - Principles of Radiographic Testing.

For candidates with some knowledge of radiographic theory or radiographic testing qualification, a hand book can be provided to undertake 16 hours Distance Learning, which with the 40 hour RI Part B course, meets the 56 training hour requirement of the certification schemes. Please contact Customer Services in advance if selecting this training option.

An assessment of theoretical Radiographic Testing (RT) knowledge will be taken on the first day of the courses, but no further theoretical RT training will be provided during the Radiographic Interpretation course.
