The NDT Practitioner Career & Training Day is BINDT’s flagship recruitment and educational outreach event held at their Northampton headquarters. This event is designed to address the skills gap in the engineering sector by connecting aspiring technicians with accredited training providers and employers. The day begins with a series of "State of the Industry" talks, highlighting the diverse career paths available in NDT—from underwater inspection in the North Sea to X-ray analysis of historical artifacts.
For students and early-career professionals, the event provides a roadmap for the PCN certification process, explaining the various levels (Level 1, 2, and 3) and the required experience hours. Representatives from leading NDT training schools will be on-site to discuss course availability, apprenticeships, and the Foundation Degree in NDT offered in partnership with UK universities. The afternoon session features a "CV Clinic" where experienced Level 3 consultants provide feedback on resumes and interview techniques specifically for the engineering industry.
This event is not just for newcomers; seasoned professionals can learn about Continuing Professional Development (CPD) and the path to becoming an Incorporated or Chartered Engineer through BINDT. By bringing together educators, employers, and candidates, this event serves as the primary engine for professional growth within the UK NDT community.
