How this course is different?
Taught by industry recognized experts in the field of pipeline engineering, this course is unique in its applied learning approach. Held at the world-renowned Banff Centre in Banff, Alberta, Canada, participants will be immersed in lectures and exercises designed to build practical knowledge. Working in groups on these exercises in the evenings is expected. Upon completion of an exam, students will be awarded a Certificate of Completion issued by the Pipeline Systems Division of ASME.
