IRTCAT-II Infrared Thermography Training and Certification
This course will prepare you for life as an Infrared Thermographer. You will learn in depth about radiation and heat distribution, and how to identify thermal anomalies across a wide range of industrial applications.
Our IRTCAT-II ISO Category II course will set you up for success.
The good news is you are in the right place to get further information about our thermography category I training. Infrared Thermography is far more complex than most people realize. It is a classic case of people not knowing what they don’t know. Learn the Mobius way; through our unique animations and simulators. Our training will make all the complex science easy to understand – it will all become second nature.
Once you complete the training, you can take the exam with confidence and become certified to ISO 18436-7 Category II via the internationally respected Mobius Institute Board of Certification [MIBoC]™. The MIBoC certification is accredited to ISO/IEC 17024 – there is no higher standard. You will join thousands of other Mobius™ certified analysts around the world.

Welcome to the beginning of your thermography journey
Learn the Mobius Way
With the assistance of the Mobius Institute interactive simulations, 3D animations, and case studies, you will not need a great memory to learn all the facts and concepts. As a result, you will understand the science and application of infrared thermography. You will go deep into the physics of infrared thermography and learn to perform advanced thermographic inspections on a wide variety of systems and equipment. Your understanding of failure modes, recognition of thermal anomalies, and accounting for environmental factors will ensure you take quality readings, correctly interpret the results to determine severity, and recommend effective corrective actions.
This course is intended for the thermographer who will:
Select the appropriate infrared thermography technique and understand its limitations
Apply thermography theory and techniques, including measurement and interpretation of survery results
Perform advanced fault diagnoses and recommend appropriate field corrective actions
There are three major reasons why over 5,000 students choose Mobius Institute training every year:
We make complex topics simple with amazing 3D animations and simulations that make you say, “Ah, now I get it!”
We give you access to the entire course before the class begins so you are better prepared, and for four months after the course, just in case you still have questions.
We use anonymous, stress-free polling throughout the course, so you know if you truly understand each topic, and the instructor knows not to move on to the next topic – no student is left behind.

You should be recognized for your achievements; not everyone is up to the challenge of understanding thermography, let alone successfully collecting data and utilizing it
Being certified by an accredited certification organization is a major step up from simply passing a test. Yes, the process is a little more complicated and stricter, but that is for very good reasons
The educational process is extremely valuable, but being certified tells an employer (or a consulting client) that you are capable of doing an important job
You will receive a digitally encrypted certificate, an ID card, and a personalized logo that you should use in email signatures and elsewhere that you want people to know about your achievements.
Every registered student will receive an instructional email to finalize their course registration. They will also receive a link to their personal Learning Zone account. The account provides a series of movies and a digital version of the course manual. These movies are actual course videos, recorded in a studio, and contain the same content taught in the instructor-led course the student is registered in. The Learning Zone account may be used for pre-course study materials, review during the course, reference after the course, or used to re-take the course and re-sit your certification exam. The account is activated at the time the student registers for the course and expires 4 months after the closing date of the course they will be attending.
Enhance your learning experience with our 1-Year Continued Education upgrade, extending access to course content, videos, and resources for an entire year beyond the standard 4 months. Stay current, refresh your knowledge, and maintain your edge in the industry. With the option to renew annually, you can continue to review and expand your skills, ensuring ongoing growth and expertise. To upgrade, either select the 1 Year Continued Education Upgrade option using this link – 1-Year Continued Education Upgrade Link or contact your training partner directly.
No, but we do offer Category II Distance Learning (DL) course which is the online equivalent to our Public course. The cost is the same as attending a Public course, the training material content is fully ISO 18436 compliant and you will be qualified to take the Certification Exam once you have completed the DL course.
Yes, we can provide this training on-site at your facility or at any other training facility of your choice, with one of our expert instructors. If you are in North America, Australia, or New Zealand, please email learn@mobiusinstitute.com for a quotation. Outside of these areas, contact your local training partner here.

MIBoC uses the Ishihara Color Perception Test, also known as the color vision test to measure a person’s ability to tell the difference between colours. Ishihara test checks for red-green colour blindness.
In an Ishihara test, a person looks at a series of circles (known as Ishihara plates) with dots of different colors and sizes. A person who has trouble seeing red and green will find the shapes and numbers hard to see, or may not see them at all.
