American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT) Radiographic Testing Practice Test

Recertification is primarily achieved based on evidence of continuing satisfactory performance. This means that individuals must demonstrate that they have maintained their skills and knowledge in radiographic testing since their initial certification. This can involve submitting records of ongoing work, proof of experience, and other documentation that showcases their commitment to professional development and adherence to industry standards.

Continuing satisfactory performance ensures that certified professionals remain competent in their field, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity and reliability of radiographic testing. It emphasizes the importance of ongoing learning and practical application of knowledge, rather than relying solely on a singular exam or training program completion.

Other approaches, while beneficial for skill enhancement, do not alone constitute the method for recertification. For instance, merely passing a written exam does not account for practical capabilities or professional growth since certification. Similarly, filling out a recertification application without evidence of performance does not validate ongoing competency, and participation in training programs alone would not guarantee that an individual's skills are up to date if unsupported by actual work experience.
