Course Format

Each participant will receive a comprehensive manual that includes a glossary of terms, references for additional reading, and copies of relevant handouts, standards, and regulations as well as an overview of the coating fundamentals covered in SSPC's C1 course. Students can refer to this overview as needed during the C-2 course for a refresher. Topics covered in this course assume a knowledge of the fundamentals.

The written exam consists of 80 multiple-choice questions and 20 points worth of essay and fill-in-the-blank questions. To receive a certificate and CEU's, you must attend all 40 hours of the course and attain a 70% or better score on the exam.

Who Should Attend

Contractors, engineers, inspectors, consultants, facility owners, technical services and sales reps.

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.
