Role Summary:

As a NDE Specialist (Level III) you will be responsible for the following activities and or functions:

NDT Certification Authority: controls and approves a single standardized company “written practice” procedure for the training, qualification, and certification of NDT Level I and II technicians. Classroom training of technicians for NDT methods requires a Level III in that method. The required on-the-job training hours can be performed and documented while under the direct supervision of a certified Level II technician. Written examinations must be developed and graded by a certified Level III in that method, but the proctoring of the written examinations can be delegated to a facility supervisor/manager. Practical examinations must be developed and graded by a certified Level III in that method, but only has to be witnessed and documented by a certified Level II in that method. Qualifications of a candidate for certification must be verified by a Level III before a certification can be issued and signed by a Level III of that method.

NDT Procedure, acceptance criteria, and technique approval: must be reviewed and signed as approved by a Level III in that method, but can be written by anyone capable of composing the code requirements for that specific process. This would apply to both Corporate engineering NDT procedures as well as plant-specific NDT procedures.

Vendor NDT Procedure reviews: depending on the facility Quality Manual requirements, vendor procedures may have to be reviewed and approved for use by a certified NDT Level III in the specific method.

Vendor NDT Program reviews: typically the vendor's written practice procedure for the training, qualifying, and certifying NDT personnel are reviewed by the quality audit team. However, subject matter expertise of an NDT Level III on this type of document review is encouraged and requested.
