This custom 5-day course provides in-depth academic training in gear and loadout optimization, operational planning and strategy development, evaluating and selecting entry options, team operations and coaching, as well as pushing the limits of operator performance through customized high-stakes scenarios focused on the operator's existing strengths and weaknesses.

Additionally, mentorship training (train the trainer) is included, enabling your primary NDE specialist to train others within your department. To maintain certification, the trainer must recertify every 2 years to stay current with ODE's latest standards, methods, tools, and techniques. Mentees are required to co-teach one Level 2 course with ODE for re-certification purposes. Certification will be revoked if the trainer fails to meet required standards.

This program ensures the highest level of quality control and external oversight, keeping your NDE operations ahead of industry standards. We support the design, management, and continuous improvement of your program, while providing data to track progress and effectiveness.
