The American Institute of Nondestructive Testing focuses on nondestructive testing, which helps assure that structural and mechanical components are functioning in a safe and reliable way. Technicians perform tests to find any sign of weakness.
For example, students learn to inspect products like car parts or bridges for flaws like corrosion, stress cracking, failure and fatigue.

All courses are available on an iPad, iPhone or Android.
