NEW Metrologist in Training (MIT) Assessment Test
ECM will host the Coordinate Metrology Society's NEW Metrologist in Training (MIT) Assessment Test at this year's Quality Show along with a brief overview of the TWO separate Level-One CMS Exams; one for Portable 3D Metrologists and one for Traditional CMM Experts. The NEW Metrologist in Training test is an internationally approved assessment designed to assist in the development of the skills needed to pass the industry recognized Coordinate Metrology Society (CMS) Certification Exam. The MIT test is modeled on the CMS Level 1 cognitive assessment so that a test taker will experience the same online test environment, and encounter questions distributed across the same body of knowledge as the actual CMS Level 1 - Certification Exam. The test score is broken down by category within the body of knowledge. This will identify to the test taker their strengths and weaknesses within the five major breakout categories outlined in the CMS Certification. A high-score on the MIT test is an indicator that the test taker is on the right path to becoming an expert dimensional metrologist.
The course reviews the five broad areas of knowledge considered in the test:
- Basic principles in interpreting engineering documents.
- Effects of equipment and environment on measurement.
- Factors in establishing a measurement and documentation plan
- Measurement Operations
- Ethics and Analysis
Benefits of Taking the Metrologist in Training Assessment Test:
- Inexpensive
- No Prerequisites
- Convenient to Schedule
- Not a Pass or Fail Exam
- Show Employer Commitment to Self-Improvement
- Shows Skills to Work on Prior to Taking Certification Exam
*The Metrologist in Training (MIT) test is not a pre-requisite to the CMS Certification.
