Mr. Theo Young is the greatest API 570 instructor I have ever had. The way he takes time to help everyone understand with visuals throughout his unique power points helps everyone truly understand what is being given in the code. The extra quizzes, homework, and tests help you be confident in passing the exam. Mr. Young always went out of his way to show up early and stay late, leaving the doors open for questions at any time. I just hope he starts 510 soon.
Recently came across the Refined Inspection Services classes and I was immediately blown away by the entire program. Decided to take a Visual Testing class and Theo was amazing. I felt relaxed and the class was super informative. Will definitely come back for a few more. I recommend anyone looking to advance their NDT careers to stop by and talk to Theo. You will not regret it I promise.
Mr. Young performed beyond expectations on a major capital project, his knowledge of standards and ability to quickly grasp company specifications was key to completing the project on time. His ability to take on multiple roles throughout the changing phases of a capital project and NDE knowledge was greatly appreciated.
Mr. Theo displayed a level of professionalism that helped bring the information he was teaching easier to comprehend. He had great communication throughout the class. He also was very detailed with his assessment feedback. My overall experience was a roller coaster of emotions. By the end of the week, I was confident that the information was retained. I came into this class not knowing anything at all about Phased Array, by the end of the week I felt strong enough to be able to speak the language with confidence.
I was very fortunate to attend the ndt gym setting at Refined and was very impressed. Theo was not only very helpful but has created a great environment. Along with the test specimens he has an excellent library you can browse through to help you visually see the different characteristics of various defects. He was more than willing to answer any questions I had and even gave me some good tips to better my technique. If you want to tighten up on your technique or flaw detection I would strongly recommend you hit the gym at Refined. It’s definitely a great place to work out!
I liked less students in the class for more one on one. The instructor took the time to show examples of everything he was teaching in many different ways so we could understand better. Keep doing what you are doing it is working.
