Certification Prerequisites
(as of July 1st, 2007)
Math: NRCan has implemented a math prerequisite that affects
all students registering for all Radiography, Ultrasonics, Eddy
Current and CEDO courses. All students are required to complete
a 15 question math examination prior to being approved to attend
these courses. This is a one time examination. This exam can be
completed at any Test Centre or can also be challenged online.
Engineering, Materials and Components (EMC): It is mandatory
for all candidates applying for CGSB certification to have
successfully completed an Engineering, Materials and Components
(EMC) course, or to provide evidence of meeting this requirement
by successfully completing an equivalency exam. This is a one
time exam which candidates must receive 70% minimum to pass.
Please note that all candidates who currently hold two (2) or more
CGSB certifications are exempt from this requirement.
CINDE offers both of these exams online free of charge to our
members. Annual CINDE membership fee is $70 and you can
register online for membership at www.cinde.ca/apply.shtml .

should consider on-site training at your
company.
This convenient, cost-effective option can save you
thousands of dollars in travel expenses and allows
you to customize course content and course dates to
fit within your schedule.
On-site training is the most economical way to
train your staff.
You won't have to pay airfare, hotel accommodations,
or meal reimbursements for multiple people. Plus,
you'll gain productivity when your employees are not
away from work.
You tell us when, where, and at what time.
Let CINDE bring the training to you. Students can
learn at their own pace and on their own systems and
