Five main benefits:
1/ When you
register for this course, you will be given access to the Mobius
Institute Learning Center where you can access iLearnVibration,
the manual, and the pre-study guide. Prepare and you will succeed!
2/ Our
course utilizes modern slides, animations, innovative
simulations, and live case studies -
all delivered by Walt Barringer, Alan Friedman, or Tony DeMatteo, who are all 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 follows the ISO 18436.2 Category III
standard, and the ASNT SNT-TC-1A Level III standard. The
exam follows ISO 18436.2 - note that only ASNT can deliver the
Level III exam.
5/
You can continue to use iLearnVibration for six months after the
course, and you take a way our pocket Reference Guide,
diagnostic mouse pad, and our new training manual.

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.
