ABOUT THIS COURSE

MEM15004 Perform inspection equips workers to plan and carry out an inspection against a written specification, identify non-conformances, and document the result so the next person in the chain can act on it.

The unit covers the full inspection workflow — interpreting drawings and specifications, selecting the right measuring or test equipment, conducting the inspection, recording results and flagging items that fall outside tolerance.

It is widely used in mechanical, fabrication, manufacturing and asset-maintenance environments where formal inspection records are required for handover, quality systems or compliance.
