Five main benefits:
1/ When you
register for this course, you will receive the iLearnVibration
CD and pre-study guide. Prepare and you will succeed!
2/ Our
course utilizes modern slides, animations, innovative
simulations, and live case studies -
all delivered by Bill Kilbey or Tony
DeMatteo, who are both very experienced analysts and
instructors.
3/ Each
class will have ten Dell notebook computers so that you can
interact with the simulations, participate in course activities,
and analyze real vibration measurements.
4/ You can
take the optional certification exam. The training course and
exam follows the ISO 18436.2 Category III standard, and the ASNT
SNT-TC-1A Level IIB standard.
5/ You take
away the award winning
iLearnVibration vibration training CD, a
course book, pocket reference guide and mouse pad.

Advanced Vibration
Training
ISO Category III / ASNT Level II-part
2
The Vibration
Specialist "Advanced" course is intended for personnel who have at
least two years vibration analysis experience and a thorough
understanding of vibration theory and terminology. The course
provides an in-depth study of diagnostic measurement techniques and
the associated applications of the techniques.
It is expected
that the attendee is either the leader of the vibration team, or
takes a leading role in diagnosing faults and making the final
recommendation. This person must fully understand all of the
data collector options, special test capabilities, and analysis
tools; and must understand the widest range of fault condition.
This course will
give the analyst all of the skills and knowledge necessary to solve
all fault conditions, and to run a successful condition monitoring
program.
