Pipeline

NCCER has been providing training and qualification resources for the pipeline industry since 2002. Our Operator Qualification (OQ) program is designed to ensure that operators and contractors working on Department of Transportation (DOT) regulated pipeline facilities are qualified to perform specific Covered Tasks (CT), document the qualification and mitigate incidents and accidents.

Our comprehensive system provides interactive online training, proctored tests and performance evaluations for liquid, gas and distribution in the following pipeline craft areas: maintenance, mechanical, electrical and instrumentation, operations and corrosion.

NCCER’s accreditation process helps ensure the integrity of your program by providing standardized training and certifications for instructors, proctors and evaluators.

Once a candidate completes the knowledge and performance tests, their completion is sent to ISNetworld for validation to work on approved Operator sites.
