Why Choose AUKOM GD&T?

When you want to take the path towards eliminating measurement uncertainty, it’s essential to educate your team on GD&T. And if your team employs the use of metrology equipment, then our AUKOM GD&T course is vital. Take a look at the subject matter covered in this training, and feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.

  • Target group: Production metrologists, production engineers, developers, design engineers, QA heads
  • Prerequisites: None
    Note: an AUKOM 2 certificate for production metrologists is recommended, but not required for participation. Furthermore, if you complete AUKOM GD&T and pass the AUKOM 1 and AUKOM 2 exams, you will earn a certificate qualifying you as an AUKOM Metrologist.
  • Learning goals: This GD&T training course provides in-depth knowledge on form and positional tolerances in accordance with ISO & ASME standards. This course is for advanced measuring technicians who work alongside other departments and must communicate design changes effectively. Attendees will gain an insight into the topic of form and positional tolerances. AUKOM training helps measuring technicians successfully implement the drawing specifications and minimize uncertainty in measurement. This course will also assist metrologists in effectively communicating with other departments and reducing conflict. Lastly, by taking our AUKOM GD&T course, it’s common to lower operating costs and reduce wasted materials.
  • Course duration: 5 days
  • Completion: Certificate only. Participants who have passed the AUKOM 1 exam, AUKOM GD&T, and AUKOM 2 exam will receive a certification as an AUKOM Metrologist upon completion of the AUKOM GD&T course.
  • Cost: $2000 per student
