    The Australian non-destructive testing (NDT) standard, AS/NZS ISO 9712, is a standard that specifies the requirements for the qualification and certification of personnel who perform NDT. The standard is based on the international standard ISO 9712 and is applicable to a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, construction, and aviation.

    The standard covers the qualification and certification of personnel who perform NDT in four levels:

    1. Level 1: This is the basic level of NDT certification, which is suitable for personnel who perform simple NDT tasks under the supervision of a Level 2 or Level 3 personnel.

    2. Level 2: This is the intermediate level of NDT certification, which is suitable for personnel who can perform NDT independently and supervise Level 1 personnel.

    3. Level 3: This is the advanced level of NDT certification, which is suitable for personnel who can perform NDT independently and supervise Level 1 and Level 2 personnel.

    4. Level 4: This is the highest level of NDT certification, which is suitable for personnel who have a broad and in-depth knowledge of NDT and can act as technical experts or consultants.

    AS/NZS ISO 9712 specifies the minimum requirements for the training and experience of personnel who wish to obtain NDT certification at each level. It also includes requirements for the periodic recertification of personnel and the use of appropriate NDT methods and equipment.

    The use of certified personnel is important in the NDT industry, as it helps to ensure that NDT inspections are carried out to a consistent and high standard. Adherence to the Australian NDT standard helps to ensure the safety and reliability of the components and structures being inspected.
