Introduction

The Vibration Institute vibration analysis certification program is the benchmark and is recognized as one of the highest standards of industry knowledge and competence among professionals in the field. Employers and clients seek the most qualified and knowledgeable professionals in an increasingly competitive marketplace. Vibration Institute analysis certification programs were accredited by the American National Standards Institute in March 2010. ANSI is the premier organization coordinating national and international standards implementation. 

Accreditation by ANSI ensures that the institute’s vibration analysis certification program and process is fair, and consistent and maintains the highest standards to assess the qualification of professionals in a non-subjective manner. Certified vibration analysis, ensures technical competence and a measurement for advancing careers. For employers, certification validates employees’ skills and knowledge that ultimately result in better service, support, and customer satisfaction grounded in safe and effective practices.

The four-category vibration analysis certification program offered by the Vibration Institute adheres to ISO 18436-2 and is enhanced by a job-task analysis conducted by the Vibration Institute certification committee. 

Category 1 Vibration Analysis is qualified to perform a range of single channel machinery vibration condition monitoring and diagnostics activities including data acquisition on predetermined routes, machine steady state testing to predefined procedures.

Objective
  • Understand the basics of vibration measurement
  • Demonstrate the basics of signal analysis
