[For our calibration technicians]

Calibration Technician Training

FCI invests in our technicians the same way we invest in our standards — with documented procedures, accredited curriculum, and continuous proficiency. This page is the single launchpad for your training portal, discipline-specific modules, and certification pursuits.

FCI-prepared training material

Beyond the Sine curriculum, FCI is developing internal training modules tailored to our scope of accreditation, customer base, and standards. Modules are prepared and reviewed by our Management Team.

NoteAbout these modules. Each module is being prepared by our Management Team. Modules go through draft, technical review, and management approval before they're posted here. Status badges below show where each one is in the pipeline. Bookmark this page — we'll add downloadable PDFs as modules are approved.

[Certification track]

Pursue your Certified Calibration Technician (CCT)

FCI actively supports technicians pursuing the ASQ Certified Calibration Technician (CCT) credential. CCT is recognized industry-wide as a measure of foundational competency in calibration metrology — including measurement science, quality control, technical knowledge, traceability, and uncertainty.

We provide study time, reference materials, NCSL International workshop support, and exam fee reimbursement for technicians on the CCT track. NCSLI is the calibration industry's leading professional association, and FCI is an active member.

Veteran & PMEL/TMDE preference

FCI gives a hiring preference to military veterans, especially those with PMEL (Air Force Precision Measurement Equipment Laboratory) or TMDE (Army Test, Measurement & Diagnostic Equipment) backgrounds. Many of our most accurate, defensible calibrations are performed by veterans whose training originated in DoD calibration laboratories.

CCT and PMEL/TMDE backgrounds count toward our internal proficiency-verification track and toward eligibility for senior technician and lead technician roles.
