Overview

Need more practice? The NDT Radiographic Testing Review is a refresher course designed to reinforce key theoretical concepts and practical techniques in preparation for the NRCan CGSB Radiographic Testing (RT) Level 1 practical certification exam.

Increase your confidence and reinforce your RT skills using specialized equipment in a safe, supervised lab environment. The course includes a guided activity book to walk you through the method, with instructors available to provide mentorship and support as needed.

You may use all or part of the eight-hour lab time for focused practice.
