Corrosion is a disease to materials just like a disease to human beings. Some types or forms of corrosion can be prevented through good practices in materials selection and design, while others can be cured or controlled if diagnosed early.  Corrosion diagnosis involves a number of destructive and non-destructive inspection and examination techniques such as visual and NDT inspection, chemical, electrochemical, metallurgical, mechanical  and microstructural tests and analyses. Unexpected corrosion failures can be avoided through corrosion testing, corrosion monitoring, and life prediction based on extreme value statistics.

Corrosion Clinic provides corrosion diagnosis and corrosion failure analysis, corrosion and metallurgy expert witness, corrosion training courses and corrosion consulting services across the globe.

In-House Training Corrosion Courses       (Online Registration)

 

The above corrosion short courses can be conducted at any time for you as in-house training courses or distance learning courses. There is no minimum or maximum number of participants required for each course. Public corrosion short courses, seminars and workshops are also conducted regularly. If you are concerned with corrosion in your business, in-house training is a great solution to train a group of employees from Production, Quality Assurance, Inspection & Maintenance, and Technical Sales & Support on corrosion control & corrosion prevention technology. Contents of all corrosion courses can be customized to fit your organization's needs. Requests for in-house training courses, online courses & distance learning courses from overseas countries are also welcome. Click here for course registration online.


 

Online Corrosion Courses & Distance Learning Corrosion Courses  (Online Registration)

 

All corrosion short courses can be conducted through online or distance learning. A master hard copy of corrosion course notes can be mailed to your organization or a password may be issued to course participants for accessing the online course materials. Instructions, course assignments, discussions and questions related to the corrosion courses can then be posted to the website or exchanged through email for a period up to 12 months. Video conferencing or instant messaging can also be arranged for discussions of course topics. Click here for course registration online.


 

Corrosion Course-On-Demand

All our publicly scheduled corrosion short courses are conducted once a year. However, you do not need to wait for one year if you have missed any of the publicly scheduled corrosion courses as we have this unique corrosion course-on-demand scheme: we will conduct the course just for you on an one-to-one basis at a time and in a location convenient to you. This option costs significantly less than a full-scale in-house training program. Contact us for a quotation.


 

PowerPoint Slides and Test Banks for Trainers, Instructors, Tutors, University Lecturers and Professors

 

If you are involved in teaching corrosion courses, you may wish to purchase a complete set of the PowerPoint slides and the computerized corrosion test banks (in MicroTest format) with solutions. These presentations are suitable for teaching corrosion courses at different levels (from undergraduate to postgraduate) and durations (from 6 hrs to 40 hrs). The corrosion PowerPoint slides can be easily edited and customized to your own styles. The corrosion test banks contain over 1,000 corrosion questions for your use in tutorials, tests or examinations. These questions are conveniently grouped into 4 categories in the test bank: (1) true or false, (2) multiple choice, (3) calculation, and (4) reasoning and open-ended discussions).  If you need more information, please contact Corrosion Clinic.
