Visual Testing Level - I & II

Visual Testing (VT) Level I & II is a comprehensive training program designed to develop practical knowledge and skills in visual inspection of materials, components, welds, and engineering structures. The course introduces the fundamentals of Visual Testing as a Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) method and explains the principles, applications, advantages, and limitations of visual inspection. Participants learn how to identify surface discontinuities such as cracks, porosity, undercut, corrosion, distortion, and other defects through direct and indirect visual examination. The training covers inspection techniques, lighting requirements, surface preparation, viewing conditions, and the use of basic visual inspection tools and equipment. Level I focuses on performing inspections according to established procedures and recording observations accurately. Level II provides deeper knowledge of inspection procedures, evaluation of indications, acceptance criteria, and preparation of inspection reports. Participants are introduced to relevant codes, standards, specifications, and safety practices used in industrial inspection. The course also emphasizes practical interpretation of weld profiles, dimensions, surface conditions, and common manufacturing or service-related defects. By completing the training, participants develop the foundation required to perform and evaluate Visual Testing activities in manufacturing, fabrication, maintenance, welding, and inspection environments.
