MWB/LB-145 : Range Testing Techniques This Course is for both the Technician who will actually do the work as
well as the Engineer and/or scientist who will direct the work-both must have
an intimate knowledge of the implications of ALL action requested and the
possible consequences if there are complications. SAFETY, and avoidance of any
type of accident is the primary goal of all of the courses given by Baldini
Resource Associates, Inc.; Another goal which each instructor has been tasked
with is to only give our attendees the facts; Also, tell the attendees when
the Instructor does not know the answer to a question. Many aspects of everyday testing and Range Testing Techniques and test
procedures will be covered.
