Innovation is placing greater demands on Nondestructive Examination (NDE) technicians. Along with increased demands on the technician`s skills comes increased demands on his time. The need to use technicians productively limits the time available for training. It is hypothesized that an interactive Computer Based Training System (CBT) could meet or support these needs. The results of a literature search and survey of available software are presented and a proposed CBT system for training and testing NDE Technicians is modeled. Areas for future investigation are also discussed. It is the purpose of this paper to address the following questions. Is CBT an effective tool for imparting technical knowledge and skills and can it provide meaningful measurements of the student`s proficiency? Does a CBT system exist at this time for training and testing NDE technicians for recertification? If a system is presently under development, what have been the experiences of the organizations that have attempted this development? If such a system exists, what is its nature and what have been the experiences of organizations that have attempted to incorporate the system into their training protocol?
