Contractors, engineers, inspectors, consultants, facility owners, technical services
and sales reps.
Important: In order to get the most value from the
C-2 course, you must have a basic understanding of the topics
covered in C-1, Fundamentals of Protective
Coatings. Download a self-assessment
checklist to determine your grasp of these topics. If you
do not have a working knowledge of most of these topics, you
should consider taking C-1 prior to C-2. This information is
to serve as a self-assessment to evaluate your preparedness for
taking C-2 and the PCS exam. C-1 materials included in the C-2 exam.
C-2 fulfills part of your training requirement for SSPC Protective Coatings
Specialist (PCS) certification, and prepares you for the
