What It Is

EddyCurrent.com positions itself as a one-stop resource site for the eddy current testing (ECT) and non-destructive testing (NDT) industry. It covers educational content, equipment information, software, application tools, videos, databases, suppliers, and career resources. It is not a traditional MOOC platform; it is more like a vertical industry portal that also provides, or directs users to, eddy current testing training resources.

Courses and Core Focus

Based on the content collected, its educational focus is Eddy Current Testing: using induced currents to detect surface and near-surface defects, corrosion, conductivity, and material properties in metal components. The text mentions Ed’s online 40-hour ET Level II course, which is suitable for technicians who are already ET Level II or are preparing to become one. Student feedback says it helps with concepts such as Phase Lag and tube inspection. There is also feedback on customized training in the form of a weekend ET Bootcamp, but it is not clear whether this is delivered live, as recorded content, or one-on-one.

Instructors, Certification, and Pricing

The pages mention ASNT Instructor Ed Korkowski, along with multiple positive customer comments about Ed’s technical expertise, understanding of equipment, and communication skills. In terms of certification, the course is described as preparation for certification and aimed at ET Level II Technicians, but it does not state whether it directly issues a certificate, which organization would issue it, what the assessment standards are, or how the training hours are recognized. Pricing, payment methods, and refund policies are not disclosed in the main text.

Pros and Cons

Its main strength is its highly specialized vertical focus, making it suitable for ECT/NDT professionals who want to find reference materials, equipment, and industry resources in one place. Based on the feedback, the instructor also appears to have strong practical experience, so the course may be closely aligned with field applications. The downside is that the course information is not very structured. Key decision-making details such as pricing, teaching language, certification, and learning platform experience are missing, so users need to click through further or contact the provider to confirm.

Who It’s For and Access from China

It is better suited to technicians who already have some NDT background, are preparing for ET Level II certification, or work in metal inspection for aviation, nuclear power, manufacturing, automotive, medical devices, petrochemicals, and related sectors. For users in China, the available text does not provide information on access stability, payment methods, or Chinese-language support, so these remain unknown. If you need a local certificate or Chinese-language instruction, it is worth comparing domestic NDT societies, special equipment-related training providers, and international NDT training resources such as ASNT.
