Participants emphasised the importance of bridging the gap between academia and industry through practical exposure, skill development programmes, and specialised NDT training initiatives. A key recommendation that emerged from the deliberations was the active participation and collaboration of BrahMos Aerospace with the ISNT Nagpur Chapter to promote advanced NDT technologies, knowledge-sharing initiatives, and the development of a highly skilled technical workforce.
