Agenda

🕑: 08:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Basic Corrosion Overview: An Introduction
Host: Department of Defense Maintenance Symposium

Info: Do you need a better understanding of what corrosion is, why it happens, and how it impacts your operations? Or maybe you want to know how to recognize the early signs of corrosion and take steps to reduce its economic, environmental, and safety impacts?

If so, this half-day introductory course is the perfect place to start. As the starting point for AMPP’s Basic Corrosion course, it explains the fundamentals, what corrosion is, why metals corrode, and how inspection differs from monitoring. You’ll come away with a clear understanding of corrosion’s significance across industries and be better prepared to build on these concepts in more advanced training.

🕑: 01:00 PM - 05:00 PM
Coating Fundamentals
Host: Department of Defense Maintenance Symposium

Info: Are you looking to understand how protective coatings work to combat corrosion in industrial environments? Or maybe you want to know the right steps, from surface preparation to application, that make the difference between a coating that lasts and one that fails?

If so, this half-day introductory course is the perfect place to start. As the first step toward AMPP’s Fundamentals of Protective Coatings (C1) course, it covers the essentials: the role of coatings in corrosion prevention, common coating types, surface preparation requirements, and application methods. You’ll also learn how inspectors ensure coatings perform as intended. By the end, you’ll have the foundational knowledge to make informed decisions and be ready to advance into the full C1 course.
