IMechE Argyll Ruane have been delivering corrosion and coatings inspection courses accredited by ICorr for over 20 years.
Over the past few years, they have been expanding their international network of strategic partnerships to enable them to offer these ICorr courses globally.
By forming partnerships with key organisations, IMechE Argyll Ruane are now able to deliver these courses within Europe, the Middle East, Australia, India, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Libya, Egypt and the USA. Their approved training Partners include, HTS Consultants, Alfa Egypt, RSA Academy, Leptis Ltd, Indonesian Institute of NDT, ICE-International Consultant Engineers, and TÜV Rheinland, who are all dedicated to supporting students with their ICorr training. Many, such as Leptis Ltd in Libya, have made significant investments into providing state-of the-art training facilities for students to enjoy.
Moreover, IMechE Argyll Ruane are working with a number of consultants to facilitate the delivery of these UK and overseas ICorr courses, including Kevin Graham, Simon Hope, Jane Lomas, Alex Garner, David Stowers, and Sherman Spear, who each bring a significant level of experience and breadth of knowledge of the corrosion and coatings inspection industry.
Courses that are available across these locations include ICorr Level 1, 2 and 3 Protective Coatings Inspector, Insulation Inspector, and Level 2 and 3 Passive Fire Protection (PFP) Epoxy Coating Inspector. Additionally, ICorr Level 2 Passive Fire Protection (PFP) Epoxy Coating Inspector, PCI Transition courses and Recertification examinations are available online. Upcoming course dates can be found on the website, and the diary page of the magazine.

The Young ICorr committee held their most recent meeting via teleconference at the end of April to develop a clear strategy for the coming year, as well as to establish sub-committees to focus on events/meetings, the Young Engineer Programme, a dedicated mentoring programme, and the establishment of an annual Young ICorr award.
In addition to this, for the very first time, Young ICorr had a strong presence at the annual CED working day held at the York Railway Museum on 27 April 2022. Izabela Gajewska (Intertek) represented Young ICorr as a speaker giving a talk on “Best Management Practices to Transfer Knowledge to Ensure Integrity Assurance Optimization for Oil and Gas Production”. Izabela’s talk was very welcomed by the CED attendees and initiated a number of discussions around integrating the early-stage career members into ICorr. (Editor: I hope to publish an article based on this presentation in the next issue of Corrosion Management).
In addition to this restructuring of the Young ICorr committee responsibilities as mentioned above, James McGladdery, the Young ICorr vice chair, will step up as joint chair with Danny Burkle, which will help to split the responsibility for the growth of the section whilst Danny transitions into his new position as chair of CED, taking over from Nick Smart. This transition will allow for a continued presence of Young ICorr in the ICorr Corrosion Engineering and Corrosion Science divisions. To become part of the Young ICorr community, or for more information about what they do, and how they can help you, contact, James McGladdery or Danny Burkle on James.McGladdery@uknnl.com and d.burkle@lbbcbaskerville.co.uk, respectively.

63rd Corrosion Science Symposium (CSS)
The 63rd CSS will be an in person joint meeting with Electrochem2022 taking place at the John McIntyre Conference Centre near Holyrood Park in Edinburgh, between the 5th and 6th September 2022.
The CSS is the annual meeting for students and researchers working in all areas of Corrosion Science and Engineering. The symposium is an ideal opportunity for early career researchers in corrosion to
discuss their work, share ideas and, above all enjoy themselves in a stimulating/friendly environment.
The meeting website is, www.rsc.org/events/detail/74101/electrochem-2022, and is open for abstract submissions, with a deadline of the 8th July 2022.
The CSD committee is also looking for Galloway award submissions (see, www.icorr.org/icorr-awards/). The award simply requires students to send a copy of a submitted or published paper (journal or conference proceedings) from the previous 12 months.
