Infrared Thermography Certification | Level I
CERTIFICATION OVERVIEW
Learn how to operate an infrared camera under different conditions and how to make judgements of the measurement situation out in the field and identify potential sources for error. Students will interpret thermograms and make informed decisions using heat transfer concepts to analyze thermal images and learn to distinguish between hot spots and reflections and direct versus indirect readings. What is certification? Certification means you have achieved certain performance criteria - knowledge, skills and abilities through training. Certifications prove your skills, and their value is the recognition of customers, coworkers and employers.
