Professional Group 10 - Certification and Standardisation

OS10 is a professional group that brings together all those interested in certification, qualification and standardization in the field of NDT. Its members are representatives of most accredited Certification Bodies.

Activities:

Our activities are focused on the issues mentioned above. We have submitted the conditions for applicants for membership of MRA/S2 to the Society's Committee for approval.

Another task is to generate discussion on a meaningful range of standards used in training NDT professionals. We aim to create conversation about the scope of training that will be attended by representatives of training centres and Certification Bodies and representatives of industrial companies from whom we expect to learn which of the existing standards they are using and will use.

Furthermore, we would like to form a group that would partner in planning the translation of the standards. From this initiative, we hope to see a more efficient use of funds that will not have to be spent on the translation of marginal standards.

The OS 10 group traditionally holds workshops at CNDT conferences on current certification, qualifications and standardization issues.
