Coatings in Conjunction with Cathodic Protection

Coatings in Conjunction with Cathodic Protection took place Oct 5–10, 2026 in Bogota, Colombia. It was a Course event for corrosion and materials science professionals in the South America region. The course focuses on controlling metallic corrosion using protective coatings as the primary barrier, supplemented by cathodic protection (CP). It covers the selection, specification, application, testing, and inspection of coatings used with CP. Aimed at managers, engineers, field staff, and technicians, it revisits corrosion and CP fundamentals, explains the synergistic relationship between coatings and CP, and trains participants to select, assess, and troubleshoot coating systems and their failure modes in CP-protected structures.
