FE0935 : API 571: Corrosion and Materials (API Exam Preparation Training)

 key first step in safely and reliably managing equipment is identifying and understanding the relevant damage mechanisms. Proper identification of damage mechanisms is important when implementing the API Inspection Codes (API 510, API 570, API 653) and in conducting risk-based inspection per API 580 and API 581. When performing a fitness-for-service assessment using API 579, the damage mechanisms need to be understood and need to be considered when evaluating the remaining life.

 This API 571 Supplemental Inspection Certification program is designed to train inspectors on damage mechanisms affecting fixed equipment in the refining and petrochemical industries. The objective of this program is to provide documented evidence of advanced (above the basic core API 510, 570 & 653 examinations) knowledge and expertise in the area of Corrosion and Materials based on the information contained in API RP 571. 

 An API Supplemental Inspection Certification is defined as “Documentation that indicates that minimum requirements have been met for additional qualification in the designated area of expertise”. This would include an API issued letter, certificate, and a wallet card. This certificate will add significant value to your professional credentials. It will show your employers and clients that you have obtained a high level of proficiency and understanding in this important field.

 This supplemental inspection certification program is open to anyone who is currently certified to either API 510, 570 or 653. Included with the course is a pre-study guide and student classroom workbook. The student receives instruction regarding how to take the test, as well as insight into the intricacies of "real world" situations. Daily tests are designed to gauge students’ proficiency and understanding of the material. Haward Technology is proud of its 90% pass rate on all our API sponsored courses.
