Student Testimonials
“The IPEIA codes course (now known as “Student Pressure Equipment Fundamentals Seminar”) was an amazing opportunity for both a crash course and a summary for the codes that I briefly learned about in school. Having the information provided in the weekend course format and instructors who were willing to answer any question
– Tina Chen, NAIT Graduate (Materials Engineering Technology)
“I attended both the IPEIA codes courses, Beginner and Advanced, in 2022 (now known as “Student Pressure Equipment Fundamentals Seminar”) . This course covers a lot of content in the allotted time and has helped me make the transition from new student grad, to working in a live facility. I still find myself recalling things I learned in the course that I can apply to the job, Definitions, construction codes, CRN numbers, over pressure protection, and more. The codes course is a great addition to technical knowledge for anyone looking to get into, or are new to, the industry.”
– Cheyenne Starblanket, QC Level 1, NAIT Graduate (Materials Engineering Technology)
