ME Transitioning to Digital-First Delivery

Starting in 2025, ASNT is moving to a digital-first membership model. As part of this change, Materials Evaluation will no longer be printed and mailed to all members each month. The final automatically mailed issue will be August 2025.

This change helps ASNT keep membership dues affordable as printing and postage costs rise, as well as reduce our environmental impact.

We’re also enhancing your digital experience with a new way to explore Materials Evaluation content online, launching later in 2025.

Self-Employment in NDT: What to Expect When You’re Your Own Boss

Thursday, 15 January 2026
1:00 - 2:00 p.m. ET

Register for Meeting 


A new year is a natural time to think about your career direction — including whether self-employment or 1099 work might be part of your future. This session gives NDT professionals a clear, realistic look at what independent work truly involves.

Drawing on 26 years of self-employment, Michael V. McGloin will walk through a fuller, more honest pros-and-cons list: the benefits that attract many technicians, and the challenges that often catch people by surprise. You’ll learn what to expect as a contractor or business owner, how to reduce your taxes, and what to consider when planning for retirement.

Michael brings deep industry experience, including fieldwork, aerospace projects, seven ASNT Level III certifications, and extensive leadership within ASNT. His insights will help you decide whether self-employment is a path to pursue in the year ahead.
