Course Questions

Common questions about Velocity Training course options

What is the difference between API exam prep and individual certificate courses?

API exam prep is designed to help students prepare for an API certification exam, such as API 1169 Online Training, API 1169 Classroom Training, or API 1184 Online Training. Individual certificate courses, including PCI-1100, PCI-2100, PLI-2200, and CPCI-2300, are Velocity Training certificate programs that teach practical pipeline inspection knowledge and award VTES certificates after successful completion.

Which course should a new pipeline inspector start with?

New inspectors often start with PCI-1100 because it introduces the pipeline construction sequence, inspector roles, reporting, safety awareness, basic code reference skills, NDT concepts, welding concepts, hydrostatic testing, and pipeline terminology. Students can review all practical inspector programs in the certificate course section.

Which course is best for API 1169 exam preparation?

Students preparing for the API 1169 Pipeline Construction Inspector exam should choose API 1169 Online Training, API 1169 Classroom Training, or a corporate API 1169 training path. PCI-2100 is a practical construction inspector certificate course, but API 1169 exam prep is the more direct exam-readiness option.

Is the API 1169 exam open book?

No. API 1169 is not a traditional open-book test. PDF federal regulations are available during the exam, but only approximately 20% of questions can typically be answered using those documents as references. The remaining 80% test foundational knowledge, inspector responsibilities, industry best practices, field judgment, documentation, and safety and environmental awareness. Questions are randomly presented and do not identify whether they are reference-based or closed-book knowledge questions.

Which course is best for pipeline facility construction inspection?

Students preparing for pipeline facility construction inspection should review API 1184 Online Training. It focuses on facility construction topics such as compressor stations, pump stations, meter stations, terminals, SCADA, electrical installations, high-voltage switchyards, machinery installation, packaged equipment, safety, environmental controls, welding, pressure testing, and documentation.

Do Velocity Training exam-prep courses include a 100% Training Guarantee?

Yes. Velocity Training provides a 100% Training Guarantee for eligible API exam-prep courses when students complete the required course work. The 7-day access option is excluded. Students should review the applicable course details and guarantee requirements before enrolling.

Are online safety courses the same as API exam prep courses?

No. API 1169 and API 1184 exam prep courses are hosted in the Virtual Campus. Online safety courses are hosted in a separate safety training portal and include topics such as HAZWOPER, DOT Hazmat, H2S, HAZCOM, confined space awareness, silica awareness, heat illness prevention, respiratory protection, and Spanish-language options.

Can companies purchase training for multiple employees?

Yes. Velocity Training supports corporate training needs for API exam prep, individual certificate courses, and online safety training. Companies can contact Velocity Training for group enrollment support, bulk licensing, course guidance, and safety corporate account options.

Can I study now and pay later?

Eligible students may see Study Now, Pay Later options for API 1169 Online Training, API 1169 Classroom Training, and API 1184 Online Training. Availability depends on the payment provider, purchase amount, location, currency, and approval status. Visit the Study Now, Pay Later page for details before enrolling.
