What is GDTP Certification? PDF Print E-mail

 

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), in recognition of the needs and benefits associated with standard qualifications for professionals using the Dimensioning and Tolerancing ASME Y14.5M standard, established a certification program for Certification of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing Professionals (GDTP). The certification program provides the means to recognize proficiency in the understanding and application of the geometric dimensioning and tolerancing principles expressed in Y14.5.

 

The first level, Technologist GDTP, provides an objective measure of an individual’s ability to understand drawings that have been prepared using the language of Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing, as defined in the ASME Y14.5 standard. The second level, Senior GDTP, provides the additional measure of an individual’s ability to select proper geometric controls as well as to properly apply them to drawings.

 

All of our instructors are certified GDTP, Sr. Level, possess bachelor degrees in engineering, and have over 15-20 years experience using, teaching, and consulting on Y14.5.
