Ivy Tech Community College of Indiana, Terre Haute, in cooperation with the State of Indiana’s Boiler and Pressure Vessel Division, offers a special training course for persons interested in acquiring eligibility for securing certification from the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors as an authorized inspector, owner-user inspector or jurisdictional competency recognition. The course is designed for the understanding of ASME code standards, inspection concepts and preparation to sit for the National Board Examination. Persons not possessing all of the requisite experience or who are not employed by a recognized inspection agency at the time they sit for the exam, may attend the class and sit for the examination, but not anticipate receiving a commission until they have gained the required experience or have been employed by a recognized inspection agency. They must, however, be a high school graduate (or the equivalent) and possess a working knowledge of algebra, particularly transposition of formulas and order of operations.

BENEFITS TO YOUR ORGANIZATION

For many individuals wanting to become a credentialed Boiler and Pressure Vessel inspector and sit for the National Board exam, the uncertainty of what to expect on the exam and what material might be covered in a preparatory course can make preparation for either somewhat difficult. Having a person certified to do inspections can save much in the way costs and time contracting someone else to do it.
