This course is the point needed to complete the instruction of infrared. It finally completes the learning circle at Infraspection Institute. I’m glad I was a part of this historic first class.

~ John Fehlberg, Advanced Thermal Systems




I have taken all three levels of courses. I was impressed and will recommend these courses to Amoco inspectors and maintenance people. I am also impressed with your follow-up support.

~John Nyholt, Amoco Research Center
