TIPCHECK training courses
Each year, EiiF organises training courses teaching qualified candidates from EiiF member companies how to conduct standardised, high-quality thermal energy audits—known as TIPCHECKs. The participants who pass the final exam receive their TIPCHECK certification and become TIPCHECK Experts.
Our trainings are designed for professionals with at least 1 year of experience in industrial insulation projects and a general understanding of thermal calculations and the designing of technical insulation systems. A valid EiiF Membership is a prerequisite for most of the TIPCHECK courses; however, the TIPCHECK Corporate Expert training courses are open to non-members as well (e.g. asset owners) as long as special requirements are met.
We also offer tailored EiiF workshops, either online on on-site. The workshops are ideal for up to 12 participants. The participants receive a TIPCHECK Ambassador certificate and there is no final exam. Please see Fees for more information or contact us.
