Ultrasonic Testing (UT) – Levels 1 and 2 - Pre-course eLearning Package

For those who enroll in TES Canada's classroom-based course on ultrasonic testing, we offer an exciting opportunity to enhance your preparedness through our pre-course eLearning packages. These optional add-ons provide a comprehensive understanding of the key concepts that will be covered in the classroom, giving you the best possible chance to excel and achieve certification.

Please note that this option is exclusively available to students enrolling in full courses. The eLearning material will be accessible 30 days prior to the course start date, allowing you ample time to familiarize yourself with the content and boost your confidence before stepping into the classroom.

Take advantage of this valuable resource and ensure you are fully prepared for your ultrasonic testing course with TES Canada. Build a solid foundation of knowledge and maximize your potential for success.

This course is eligible for Continuing Professional Development (CPD) credit hours.

 The eLearning part of this training course is divided in four modules:

  •  Module 1: Basic

  •  Module 2: 0-degree

  •  Module 3: Angled

  •  Module 4: Review

Each module contains:

  • Pages explaining the underlying theory

  • Videos explaining the theoretical and practical aspects of Ultrasound Testing, Silverlight interactive exercises in which the student can build a set-up, practice calibration and scanning and learn to evaluate real data        

When you have booked your training, you will receive an email notification with your login details. You will then have 30 days before the course start date to go through the modules.
