In keeping with recent momentum, including the unveiling of its new logo and the successful PACE show, SSPC recently announced its newest training and certification program, tentatively titled “SSPC Certified Protective Coatings Inspector.”

The new program is in the final stages of development, with a pilot offering planned for May 2007 and an initial public offering planned for August 2007. The training component contains 12 modules taught over the course of five days, with an optional certification exam administered on the sixth day. The program is designed to educate professionals new to coatings inspection, but will also challenge even the most experienced inspectors. Read all about it at: www.sspc.org/news/ cpcinews.html
