Engineering the Next Generation
A one day course providing delegates with an understanding of the principles of testing and quality assurance systems for improving a process/business/testing systems.
Course aimsThis course describes the
energy-metal interactions
exploited in structure and
property determinations and,
explains the philosophies and
terminology associated with
quality systems.
Who should attend Anyone requiring a clearer
insight into the energy-metal
interactions exploited in a
diverse range of industrial metal
testing scenarios who is also
interested in identifying the
strengths and weaknesses of a
business/process/testing system.
A module of the QCF level
3 Certificate in Metallurgy
