    How can I teach myself inspection and testing in preparation for my AM2S?

    I have my AM2S next month, and testing is my biggest weakness by far. I’ve been asking my company to put me on jobs where there is testing work available but it rarely ever happens. Whenever those opportunities do appear, they are very quickly completed by the experienced sparks on the team...
