Life Cycle Management of Piping Systems - (training used as CPD hours for API )

Our Life Cycle Management of Piping Systems training provides a critical insight into the updates made and how they affect the body of knowledge (BOK) for the recertification exam, which ONLY includes the API codes and publications. Additional to the recertification exam BOK, we have also included updates to the API 570 syllabus BOK, including the ASME standards, so that you are fully up to date with API 570 inspection requirements.

The recertification exam contains 25 questions which must be answered in 4 hours. The exam is open book and will only contain content from the recertification BOK and only from the API codes and publications. You can sit the exam a maximum of 2 times, which allows you one chance only to fail. If you fail twice, you will not be able to recertify and will have to submit a new application and sit the full API exam again.

Additionally, you will receive significant CPD hours which relate to specific topics required to register with API. CPD hours were introduced as a requirement for the 3-year recertification as of 1^st January 2022 and API will phase in the implementation of this process over the next 3 years, see the table below.

On completion of your online recertification training with Wilkinson Coutts, you will be provided with a certificate as proof of hours achieved. The certificate will detail all of the API CPD requirements specific to the topics listed in the CPD guidance document.
