NON-DESTRUCTIVE TEST TRAINING
The introductory program focuses on three NDT methods: liquid penetrant, radiography and magnetic particle inspection. Students will also learn the basics of materials and processassociated with NDT technology.
The advanced certificate builds onmaterial from the introductoryprogram with the ultrasonic, eddycurrent and visual inspection NDTmethods.
The technical certificate programadds hands-on experience in bothconventional and compositeaerospace assembly methods whichwill allow students to apply NDTtechniques to the aviation industry.
The National Center for Aviation Training was built by Sedgwick County to meet the aviation manufacturing workforce demand. This world-class training facility provides students the opportunity to receive hands-on, real-world training in the areas of general aviation manufacturing and aircraft and power plant mechanics. Wichita Area Technical College serves as the managing partner for theCenter, partnering with Wichita State University’s National Institute for Aviation Research, to providen industry-driven training courses.
The Nondestructive Testing program, offered by Wichita’s National Center for Aviation Training, is a cooperative effort between NIAR and theWichita Area Technical College (WATC) to supply the aviation industry with technicians who understand the role of nondestructive testing (NDT) and have mastered coursework from the American Society for Nondestructive Testing Level I and II certification.
