A National Focal Point for Education in Nondestructive Testing/Nondestructive Evaluation

无损评估中心和六所社区学院组成了一个传播中心，以加强无损检测/无损评估(NDT/NDE)领域的技术工作者的教育。该项目建立在以前开发超声波检测模拟的项目的基础上。无损检测/无损检测的教育是零散的，在各种技术研究中进行。该中心提供了一个网站，向高中和社区大学的教职员工和学生介绍从事无损检测/无损检测工作所需的知识和技能。该网站将标准、技能、课程、材料和就业信息汇集在一起。该材料可用于制造、焊接、机身、发电厂和化学加工等相关技术项目。该项目还为教师发展和学生意识提供了机会。

The Center for Nondestructive Evaluation and six community colleges form a dissemination focal point to enhance the education of technical workers in the fields of nondestructive testing/nondestructive evaluation (NDT/NDE). The project builds upon previous projects that developed simulations in ultrasonic detection. Education for NDT/NDE is fragmented, taking place in various technological studies. The focal point provides a website that informs high school and community college faculty and students about the knowledge and skills required for jobs in NDT/NDE. This website brings standards, skills, curricula, materials and job information together materials in one place. The materials can be used in related technology programs such as manufacturing, welding, airframe, power plant and chemical processing. The project also provides opportunities for faculty development and student awareness.
