PCN
Personnel Certification in Non-Destructive Testing
PCN – Personnel Certification in Non-Destructive Testing – is a scheme for the certification of competence of non-destructive testing operators. Certification is given for the traditional NDT methods and has been extended to cover guided wave testing and condition monitoring methods such as acoustic emission, infrared thermography, lubrication management and analysis and vibration analysis.
The PCN Scheme is maintained by BINDT and is accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) to provide independent evidence that PCN satisfies the requirements of relevant British, European and international standards.
