NDT Personnel Certification
Certification scope
Non-destructive testing (NDT) is an essential part of the condition assessment of materials and components. For this reason, various non-destructive testing methods have been developed and are still being continuously refined today (e.g., digital radiographic testing).
For the accurate performance of non-destructive testing, technical experts in this area must be appropriately qualified. For this reason, regulations have been introduced for the certification of NDT personnel, which are described in international standards.
TÜV NORD operates as certification body for non-destructive testing personnel (NDT personnel), which is accredited by DAkkS according to ISO/IEC 17024.
In addition, we offer you the opportunity to also be certified according to UK PESR 2016.
