Quality Auditors Technique

About Course

This program has been designed to provide an understanding of the auditing process and techniques in the aviation regulation context. In aviation, Non Destructive Testing (NDT) oversight refers to the supervision and control of inspection and testing methods that evaluate the structural soundness and dependability of aircraft parts without causing harm. It focuses on making sure that, in order to maintain the greatest level of safety and dependability, NDT processes and staff follow defined standards and procedures. The approval and supervision of NDT organisations, the certification and qualification of NDT staff, and the confirmation of adherence to relevant laws and industry best practices are all included in NDT oversight.

Aviation authorities can assure the accuracy and consistency of NDT methods, as well as the skill and proficiency of NDT technicians, by performing audits, evaluations, and frequent inspections. NDT supervision is essential to preserving the airworthiness of aircraft, preventing structural failures, and safeguarding the well being of passengers and crew.
