New ISO standard for vibration condition monitoring training and certification
Our Applied Vibration Analysis courses are all compliant with the new ISO guidelines, Condition monitoring and diagnostics of machine – Requirements for training and certification of personnel (ISO 18436-2). Four categories of ISO certification exist, categories I, II, III, and IV. In order to obtain ISO certification for a specific category, a vibration analyst must complete the coursework for that category, pass the exam(s), and meet the field experience requirements.
