Pressure equipment such as boilers, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, pressure piping, and associated safety equipment are widely used in many industries (e.g., hydrocarbon processing, chemical, power, pharmaceutical, and manufacturing). Pressure vessels and piping store energy and potentially hazardous fluids and thus have inherent safety risks. Pressure equipment designs are performed in compliance with applicable Regulations, Codes, and Standards and follow sound engineering practices to ensure structural integrity and safeguard public safety. The design covers material selection, stress analysis, fabrication, testing, inspection, operation and failure analysis, codes, standards, and regulations.
Regulations dictate the standards to be applied and refer to specific codes and standards. Failure to comply not only jeopardizes the safety and the environment but also carries penalties such as fines and possibly imprisonment. The International Boiler and Pressure Vessel (BPV) Code and the B31 Piping Codes establish rules of safety governing the design, fabrication, and inspection of boilers, pressure vessels, and piping during construction. The objective of the rules is to provide a margin for deterioration in service. Advancements in design and material and the evidence of experience are constantly being added
Understand what, where, when, and how to use various ASME codes.
Provide a clear understanding of the intent and requirements of the codes, including terminology and interpretations.
Show how and where the codes are to be applied.
Explain the code applications for different industries and who is responsible for selecting the appropriate code.
Ensure the understanding that Codes developed by standards committees, such as the ASME, rely on the use of sound engineering practices by knowledgeable engineers.
Provide an understanding of Due Diligence in design i.e. ‘to be seen to be doing the right thing’.

This program can help anyone at any level to improve the speed and effectiveness of their reading (for work and study). It also explains the secrets of super memory systems and shows how mind mapping can be used for better note-making, planning, and communication skills.
Risk is key in any project yet is often misunderstood as to the huge value that it can deliver, both to the project itself and to the people involved. This interactive, highly practical Risk Management Professional training course is designed to help delegates cover the risk management framework from the fundamentals up to the senior management level. This training course is delivered in such a way that delegates can expect to become skilled risk practitioners themselves.
Corporate/Public governance and risk management are critical There is increasing attention being paid to corporate governance and risk management in business schools and among legislators.
This course covers prerequisite topics introducing you to information security, programming, and testing it also builds strong foundations by giving theoretical lessons reinforced with practical exercises, covering topics like system, network, web app, and Wi-Fi security by the end of this course you will become a professional IT Security personnel and it will increase your ability to defend and assist an organization in assessing and mitigating infrastructure and the risks within the cyberspace
Business networking is an effective and efficient way for business people to connect, develop meaningful relationships, and grow their businesses. These achievements don’t come through a direct sales approach, however. They come from being interested in helping others, in listening, and in purposefully meeting and introducing people to one another. In this course, you’ll learn the essential ingredients for business networking, including in-person, people-centered connections, and online spaces such as LinkedIn.
