We are excited to announce the launch of our PCN accredited Level 2 Ultrasonic Phased Array (PAUT) NDT course in the Aberdeen region.

Expanding upon our established presence within Scotland, offering our phased array course in Aberdeen reinforces our commitment to ensuring IMechE Argyll Ruane’s exceptional training is accessible to all.

Scheduled 06 – 23 May, the Ultrasonic Phased Array course will be led by our Dunfermline based trainer, Stewart Gray.  Stewart has been an integral part of IMechE Argyll Ruane, Scotland since its inception, and his exceptional Ultrasonic Testing knowledge is fundamental to our training courses. Over the years, Stewart has refined and built upon his advanced Ultrasonic Testing knowledge and skills alongside industry professionals, now serving as the core PAUT tutor for our Scottish training courses.

This marks a key milestone for IMechE Argyll Ruane following the brand integration of Sheffield and Dunfermline facilities, whereby honing our structure and fine tuning our flexibility has enabled us to expand our offerings. Delivering this course in Aberdeen provides customers from northern regions with the opportunity to access our services, whilst minimising travel time, time away from home, and expenses.
