The ASNT Certification Services LLC announces the first international company to earn accreditation in ASNT’s Employer-Based Certification (EBC) program is Sdn. Bhd. Lott Inspection, based in Malaysia.
The ASNT Certification Services EBC Audit Program provides the NDT industry with a registry program that ensures NDT service providers and inspection agencies meet the minimum compliance with either Recommended Practice No. SNT-TC-1A or ANSI/ASNT CP-189 through the employer’s written practice.
Lott Inspection underwent a successful two-step audit.
“The decision to participate in the ASNT Certification Services EBC Audit Program was an easy one for us,” said Han Chung Lee, Kim-Tsew Tee, ASNT NDT Level III, Technical Manager. “Since our founding in 1986, Lott Inspection recognized the importance of ensuring that our in-house training and certification programs met the requirements of ASNT SNT-TC-1A and CP-189. Our clients trust us because they know we diligently follow the recommendations of SNT-TC-1A. From start to finish, it took only five months for us to receive the EBC accreditation ensuring that our training and certification programs comply with SNT-TC-1A. We are very proud to be associated with ASNT Certification Services and the EBC program.”
“The EBC third-party accreditation offered by ASNT Certification Services, provides industry with a mechanism to differentiate a company that can develop, implement, and maintain an employer-based certification program, as opposed to a company that cannot,” said James Bennett, ASNT Certification Services Director of Standards and Accreditation. “Congratulations to Lott Inspection for demonstrating their capability, earning their place on the ASNT Registry for an accreditation period of three years.”
The EBC accreditation registry can be found at asntcertification.org.
