PSI-PCI Classes via Interactive Virtual Training
PSI-PCI is conducting Visual Cylinder Inspection® and Specialty Courses training via live Interactive Virtual Training (IVT). We will conduct the Visual Cylinder Inspection® and supporting specialty cylinder training courses remotely via online meeting tools and conduct the hands on with pre-arranged inspection tool options to meet Federal requirements for the Certification. Some instructors may offer the basic tool sets as "loaners" or offer tools/training packages.
At a minimum the new VCI student will need to have the basic hand tools and two empty cylinders to inspect:
Flexlight, Pick Ended Probes, Welt Probe, Master Pit Reference Plate, 2x Magnification Mirror, and Thread Brush plus an internal inspection light.
If you use your own tools, they do not have to match exactly but they should be similar to the mentioned tools.
A PSI-PCI Valve Maintenance Tool kit provides the tools needed for the Valve Repair Technician program. You may still use your own tools, you would just need to have similar tools to those in the tool kit, plus a valve to use during class.
For the technology you will need to have a laptop or computer with at least a 13" screen for ease of visibility. We don't allow smartphones or tablets as sole access but you can use them for your webcam separately. You will need a webcam, speaker and microphone to participate. This is a fully integrated live class. Just as in person, but electronically.
You can visit the Course Schedule page for posted classes. Look in the location field, course description or Contact the specifically listed independent affiliate instructor for additional details for their listed course for information on course type, tools options offered, etc.
The contact info for all these instructors authorized to conduct training via IVT will be found in the Meet Our Instructors link in the left sidebar. Not every instructor lists courses so feel free to reach out directly to inquire if they could set something up.
