Nondestructive testing prepares graduates for rewarding and exciting careers
in many industries including Aviation, Aerospace, Petrochemical, Pipeline, Manufacturing,
Railroad, Shipping, and Construction to name just a few.
In a world where public safety and quality products are essential, demand is growing for qualified Nondestructive Testing
and Quality Control Technicians. The Spartan Nondestructive Testing Program offers a short training time and high job
demand.
What is NDT? Nondestructive testing is the examination of an object or material without affecting its future usefulness.
Nondestructive tests are performed to identify internal or external imperfections to determine structure, composition or
properties, or to measure geometric characteristics-without affecting the form, fit or function of the test object. You can
complete a diploma program in as little as 11 months or an associate degree in 17 months.

These programs prepare students for entry-level employment with many inspection companies. Students learn to
operate equipment used in making magnetic particle and liquid dye penetrant inspections. They also learn the basic
principles of radiation safety, metallurgy, ultrasonic inspection, eddy current leak detection, and codes and standards.
Students process and interpret film using x-ray equipment. The associate degree courses in quality control provide
the technical training for professional certification in the specialty. The knowledge gained by the additional general
education courses enhances the students’ background and intellectual proficiency so they are more competitive in their
chosen profession.
