Nondestructive testing is one of Spartan’s programs that prepares graduates for rewarding and exciting careers in many industries including Aviation, Aerospace, Auto and Boat Racing, Pipeline, Manufac-turing, Railroad, Shipping, and Construc-tion to name just a few. In a world where public safety and quality production is essential, there is a growing demand for qualified Nondestructive Test-ing and Quality Control Technicians. The Spartan Nondestructive Testing Program offers a short training time and high job demand.

What is NDT? Nondestructive testing is the examination of an object or material in a manner which does not affect its future usefulness. Nondestructive tests are performed to determine internal or external imperfec-tions to determine structure, composition or properties, or to measure geometric characteristics-without affecting the form, fit or function of the test object. You can complete a diploma program in as little as 18 months or an associate degree in 23 months.
