Comprehensive course on pipeline defect assessment, combining theory and hands-on training. It covers corrosion, dents, cracks, weld defects, and repairs, and introduces fracture mechanics and hydrogen effects. Participants gain industry-standard skills to confidently evaluate defects and ensure pipeline integrity in real-world applications.

This practical course trains participants to conduct and evaluate standardized corrosion and coating tests in salt-spray environments in accordance with key ISO standards. Through theory and hands-on exercises, attendees learn brine preparation, chamber operation, cross-cut and adhesion testing, and systematic assessment of blistering, rusting, cracking, flaking, and delamination, including joint interpretation of problematic samples.

The course builds essential expertise in coatings, corrosion prevention, standards, materials interaction, and corrosion-protective design, combining theory with practical study. Successful candidates earn the FROSIO surface treatment inspector certificate, with the level aligned to their experience.

This comprehensive course covers the ISO 12944 standard for corrosion protection of steel structures with protective paint systems. Participants master sample preparation, test procedures, cyclic aging protocols, and systematic evaluation of coating performance. Emphasizing offshore and high-severity environments, the training includes hands-on practice in proper cutting techniques, progress monitoring, and collaborative assessment of challenging samples in real-world applications.

This AWWA-ASDWA course teaches how to select, analyze, and apply corrosion-control treatment data to minimize lead and copper release and to determine when reevaluation is warranted.

This foundational course covers the eight major forms of corrosion that affect all metals and industries, teaching participants to identify risks, understand the driving forces, and apply practical control techniques. Twelve lessons cover aqueous corrosion principles, material selection, protective coatings, cathodic protection, and failure diagnosis. Ideal for engineers, managers, designers, technicians, and chemical or petroleum industry specialists seeking practical, applicable corrosion management knowledge.

This is the first part of a three-part AWWA and ASDWA program that guides water utility professionals from corrosion chemistry to regulatory action for lead reduction. It covers electrochemical processes, water-quality impacts, and Pourbaix diagrams, equipping participants with the theoretical foundation and practical treatment strategies to minimize metal release and optimize system safety.

This course introduces essential corrosion prevention principles for non-specialists, covering design considerations, material selection, and protective methods, including coatings, inhibitors, and cathodic protection. With clear illustrations and assessments, it builds a practical foundation for staff across technical, commercial, and management roles in any industry exposed to corrosion.

This course teaches essential corrosion testing and monitoring techniques, covering laboratory and field methods, electrochemical procedures, specimen preparation, and failure diagnosis. Narrated animations, demonstration videos, and interactive quizzes reinforce learning. It is ideal for design engineers, operators, technicians, process engineers, QA managers, and anyone seeking practical skills to evaluate materials and control corrosion effectively.

This self-paced AWWA/ASDWA eLearning program guides water utilities through the chemistry of corrosion, its evaluation, and the implementation of corrosion-control treatments to support lead reduction and regulatory compliance. Participants learn to evaluate, select, implement, monitor, and optimize these treatments using practical methods, tools, field studies, and performance criteria.

This comprehensive course provides practical knowledge of stainless steels, covering metallurgy, properties, processing, and corrosion resistance across all major families, including duplex. Participants learn to select alloys, solve corrosion and fabrication problems, and optimize welding and high-temperature performance, making it ideal for designers, engineers, fabricators, and maintenance professionals.

This course provides foundational knowledge for identifying, preventing, and predicting electrochemical corrosion in metals and alloys.
