V. Suggested Use of Quizzes and Quiz Keys
1. The instructor may decide to remove the lesson quizzes from the Student Guide before the student is
issued the package of training materials.
2. Quizzes can be given at the end of each lecture and then reviewed and discussed before moving to the
next lecture. This will give time for discussion and to ensure student comprehension of material before
moving to the next lesson.
3. The quiz questions in this package are not intended for use in total certification of nondestructive testing
personnel. They are simply teaching tools to aid the instructor in presenting the material. If examination
for certification is needed, it is suggested that the instructor obtain a copy of SNT-TC-1A or
ANSI/ASNT CP-189 as applicable and follow those recommendations or requirements.
4. If the instructor so chooses, the quiz results could be used to arrive at a percentage score that could
be recorded on the student’s certificate of completion along with the number of course hours and/or
continuing education unit credits.
VI. Demonstrations and Lab Exercises
1. It is highly recommended that the instructor make every effort to provide the student with some
practical experience in visual testing. The depth of practical exercises will depend on time, equipment,
and facilities available to the instructor.
