NACE: BASIC CORROSION

DescriptionThe Basic Corrosion course focuses on corrosion and the potential problems caused by corrosion. It covers a basic but thorough review of causes of corrosion and the methods by which corrosion is identified, monitored, and controlled. Active participation is encouraged through hands-on experiments and case studies, as well as an open discussion format.

Who Should AttendAnyone who needs the ability to recognize corrosion and understand its devastating potential, especially as it relates to his or her area of responsibility. This includes:• Engineers• Managers• Inspectors• Salespersons• Technicians• Anyone desiring a basic understanding of corrosion

PrerequisitesPrevious training in corrosion control is not required to take this course. However, a basic understanding of science and chemistry is recommended to gain the most value from this course.

Course Highlights (including but not limited to)• Basics of Electrochemistry

• Types of Environments Where Corrosion Occurs

• Engineering Materials

• Forms of Corrosion

• Corrosion Control & Prevention Methods
