For many years, certification has been a primary goal of professional thermographers. Aside from achieving advanced levels of certification, what separates good thermographers from great thermographers is credibility.
Credibility is an invaluable commodity that must be earned and maintained. While no single course of action can guarantee results, there are time-tested ways to help establish and maintain one’s credibility. Among these are: train and certify to the highest level possible, obtain appropriate field experience, follow published industry standards, and always use proper test equipment.
Infraspection Institute provides a number of resources to help thermographers establish and maintain their credibility. When it comes to training, certification and support, we provide the resources to make your job easier and help you to succeed. Feel free to give us a call or visit us online to learn how we can help you.
For a limited time, Infraspection Institute is offering free online training courses. Both courses are available through SuccessIRies™ – a series of web-based short courses for thermographers and inspection professionals. SuccessIRies™ courses are available 24/7 via an internet connection and cover a wide variety of topics.
Typically 30 – 60 minutes in length, SuccessIRies™ are narrated short courses that are the perfect way to keep abreast of the latest developments in the rapidly evolving field of thermography. SuccessIRies™ also meet continuing education requirements for professional inspectors.
We’ve all heard the phrase, ‘You’re judged by the company you keep’. Because the same is true in thermography, Infraspection Institute permits graduates of our Certified Infrared Thermographer® training courses to display our trademarked seal on their websites and advertising materials.
Recognized worldwide as a symbol of excellence, the two color seal pictured at left is available as a free download. Personalized versions of the seal include thermographer name, certification number, and level of training. Normally priced at $75, personalized seals are available for $50 during the month of April. Seal upgrades are FREE as you advance your training to higher levels.
