ASNT and IRISS Announce Collaboration to Deliver Industry-Leading Infrared Thermography Training
(Columbus, Ohio) The American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT) announced a strategic collaboration with IRISS Inc. to offer comprehensive infrared testing (IR) training courses.
This partnership brings IRISS’s globally recognized S.M.A.R.T. Training programs to the ASNT community, providing education that aligns with critical industry standards, including ASNT SNT-TC-1A, ANSI/ASNT CP-105, and ANSI/ASNT CP-189 recommended practices.
Available through ASNT’s eLearning portal, the courses comprise Level I, II, and III IR, with a curriculum that bridges the gap between thermal physics and practical, real-world applications. These courses are designed to help reliability teams implement thermal predictive maintenance, detect critical mechanical and electrical temperature anomalies before failure, and improve overall operational safety.
"As mandatory requirements for infrared thermography continue to increase the volume of IR work, it is essential that the NDT workforce has access to the quality training available," said Toni Kervina, CAE, ASNT Director of Content and Learning. "Collaborating with IRISS ensures that NDT industry professionals are equipped with the specialized knowledge required to enhance reliability, reduce operational downtime, and elevate safety across the globe."
These courses are eligible for NETA Continuing Technical Development Credits (CTDs) and contact hours through ASNT. The courses are designed for technicians and managers of all experience levels who are committed to mastering thermal imaging and ultrasound inspection technologies.
“ASNT has long been a cornerstone organization for the nondestructive testing community,” said Josh Robinson of IRISS. “By combining ASNT’s global reach with IRISS’s practical training approach, we’re creating a powerful pathway for technicians and reliability professionals to deepen their expertise in infrared inspection and predictive maintenance.”
