 CCT stands for Certified Calibration Technician.   It's done through the American Society of Quality.   You can check it out on the website (ASQ. org).   Search for CCT or certification.   They just redid the site and I haven't scoped it all out yet,

Not to mention...you have to recertify every 3 years.

You can do this by retaking the test...or by documenting recert "credits" by doing professional development type stuff...conference, classes, teaching, lecturing, etc.

I can imagine it's a plus for any employer...but probably not mandatory for those with documented experience/training.

I am signed up to take the exam this December in Shreveport.   Any Barksdale folks on here?

I got my books in the other day...WOOOO WEEEE...thats a lot of material.  ASQ sure does charge the crap out of ya for it too.  I told the Credit Card holder to get them from Books A Million or Barnes and Nobles.   But nope she had to get it through them.


/sigh

Oh well wish me luck, ah screw luck...just start chanting my name amongst the moutain tops.

Good luck with your test  :-D

I decided it wasn't worth it, since I aim to stay OUT of the civilian sector and more in the DOD labs - more pay, less work  :roll: Ya'll know I'm kiddin round a bit there  :-D

I seem to recall that most of the techs at Arnold have recieved their CCT. Also people from AFMETCAL helped develope it.

I wouldn't run away from and think it's not worth it.........can only help you in the long run.
