The Senior Internal Corrosion Technologist should have a thorough understanding of electrochemical and corrosion principals, field testing, laboratory analysis, monitoring techniques, and mitigation strategies. They should also be capable of comprehensive environment assessments required to develop and manage internal corrosion control programs, have sufficient knowledge and experience to determine corrective action for high-level internal corrosion problems within a pipeline system, be able to implement internal corrosion integrity programs as directed, and be able to conduct and direct all phases of ICDA.​

The course focuses on the monitoring techniques and mitigation strategies required to assess internal corrosion and develop and manage internal corrosion control programs. Data interpretation, analysis, and integration, as well as criteria for determining corrective action for high-level internal corrosion problems within a pipeline system, will be covered in detail.

Classroom instruction consists of lecture, group exercises, and cases studies.
