NASSCO’s Inspector Training and Certification Program (ITCP) is a new, standard national training and certification program. ITCP provides comprehensive education and tools for professionals to better understand and inspect trenchless pipeline renewal technologies. There will be a variety of ITCP training programs throughout the year, focusing on the proper use and application for technologies including Cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP), Pipebursting, Cleaning, and more. The two-day program consists of classroom learning in the following six areas, specific to each technology: • Introduction to pipe defect identification • Pipeline renewal technologies and applications • Writing and understanding performance specifications • Quality assurance and testing • Effective use of warrantees for pipeline renewal technologies
Attendees who complete the ITCP will receive a comprehensive course manual, CEU or PDH credits and, upon passing the ITCP course examination, a certificate of completion. In addition to an increased foundation of knowledge, CEU or PDH credits and a course manual for future reference, attendees will also receive NASSCO’s TAG-R (Trenchless Assessment Guide for Rehabilitation) computer program. TAG-R is easy-to-use interactive software created to evaluate alternative rehabilitation methods. Project requirements are entered into the program and the most applicable technologies are selected from the data. After the engineer designs the selected technology for each specific application,
these methods can then be employed in the renewal of gravity and pressure, water, sewer, drain, lateral pipes and manholes. ITCP will greatly benefit field construction professionals including consulting engineers, municipal engineers, and contractors. The cost for the two-day program and certification is $995 per attendee.
