CGSB Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) Level 2 course teaches the principles of magnetism and how they are applied in non-destructive testing (NDT). The goal of the course is to help students understand not only the testing methods but also the underlying principles and reasoning. Students learn Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) techniques for detecting defects in various ferromagnetic materials, including castings, forgings, and weldments, as well as the related equipment, accessories, inspection procedures, and standards. The course covers test principles, applications and limitations, test variables, calibration and performance checks, sensitivity evaluation, and result interpretation, including both theoretical and practical components designed to meet NRCan and CAN/CGSB-48.9712 requirements. The skills gained in this course help prepare students to meet the training requirements for MT Level 2 according to the CGSB 48.9712-2022 standard. Prerequisites for enrollment include completion of the Math course and passing the Materials and Processes course examination.
