- 1 Week.
- 3.6 CEU.
Students who complete the training requirements and a thermography field assignment will receive an Infrared Thermography Level I certification.

The course teaches the basics of infrared, how to operate the infrared camera under different conditions, how to make a judgment of the measurement situation in the field and identify potential sources for error. The student will interpret thermograms and make informed decisions using heat transfer concepts to analyze thermal images and learn to distinguish between hot spots and reflections and direct versus indirect readings.
Certification Requirements
After completing the classroom portion of this course, the student will be required to submit a complete infrared survey report within sixty (60) days. The report will be graded and it will count as one third of the final grade.
Required Equipment
Participants MUST provide their own infrared camera, reporting software, and personal computer.
The course will be covering:
• Explain the beginning and history of Infrared Thermography.
• Discuss the differences between heat and temperature.
• Explain the heat transfer modes.
• Discuss radiosity concepts.
• Perform the operation of infrared equipment
• Perform an infrared survey and report the results of the survey.
• Discuss the applications of Thermography.
