API University is dedicated to providing excellence in petroleum industry training. Because API has access to the largest pool of subject experts in the industry, our programs are taught by the best trainers who utilize today’s innovative methods.

The American Petroleum Institute (API) conducts training classes that help attendees understand and use API Standards and Recommended Practices. The Equity Engineering Group has a contract with API to teach these courses. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn the latest information from expert instructors on these topics.

API developed the TPCP program to help industry professionals evaluate various training resources for continuing education. The program identifies key elements that must be present in an effective training program, and assesses all elements of the program. To meet TPCP criteria, API reviews course development, content, student objectives and instructional materials as well as instructor qualifications, administration, and actual course delivery.

According to API, the TPCP program “is designed in the tradition of other API quality programs which set the benchmark for industry equipment, products, service and safety. We have applied similar quality standards to the evaluation of industry-wide training programs using API’s Training Program Evaluation Criteria and course-specific requirements.”

The TPCP certification allows Equity Engineering to issue certified Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and Professional Development Hour (PDH) credits to meet professional engineering certification requirements that are mandated by many jurisdictions. It also allows Equity to place the API imprimatur on these training courses worldwide.
