Founded in 1880 as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), ASME is an international not-for-profit professional organization that enables collaboration, knowledge sharing and skill development across all engineering disciplines, while promoting the vital role of engineer in society.

ASME Training & Development is recognized as a leader in training for engineers and technical professionals. Our specialist code courses in Process piping, Boilers and Pressure vessels are tailored to the needs of industry professionals and combine academic rigor with applications to real-world situations.

TGIT, in collaboration with Consulting Inspection Services (CIS) GmbH, brings the ASME Code Seminars to Nigeria for the first time, beginning in October 2016.

The ASME Code courses are individually designed to provide solutions for your company´s ASME Code business. Ranging from a general overview of the ASME Code to specialized workshops dealing with NDE, welding and design calculation, our ASME courses help you familiarize with the application of the ASME Code.

All courses are held by ASME Authorized Inspector Supervisors, whose long years´ practical experience enables them to answer your specific questions.
