ISSDA offers 'Stainless Steel Specialist Course'

Enroll For the Online Training Programme – FREE (only for India)

We are pleased to inform you that ISSDA has launched a ‘Stainless Steel Specialist Course’ with the help of Australian Stainless Steel Development Association (ASSDA) & International Stainless Steel Forum (ISSF). The course is specifically designed to enhance knowledge of stainless steel, its properties, performance and uses.

The course consists of five modules (see annexure 1) with an interactive user friendly interface. It also has a multiple choice Q&A based scoring system at the end of each module. This is an internet based online course and can be done in the comfort of your home, office or anywhere in the country without any restriction of time limit.

This course serves as a valuable information guide for all stakeholders be it students, engineers, supervisors, architects,fabricators,designers or any end users of stainless steel. The course provides a standard level of knowledge and recognized level of achievement.

We hope that with your active cooperation we will be able to spread the basic knowledge of stainless steel to all in a simple but effective way.

Following are key points of this specialty course for both who offers it to its employee/student and the employee/student themselves.
