I gonethru web but not understood since I have to purchase a whole standard unaffodable this time. may it be poosible besides TPI , manufacturer can also appoint inspector but certification also matter for individual
You can be as good as ASME inspector without joining, that all depend on your ability and requirements, But to have the certificate in your hand you have to join.
problem stands still,for asme inspector we have to join is already known whether u r working with manufacturer or associated with TPI.can an individual be certified as AI as AWS ,API570,510,or other s. and what will be the procedure if there. writing asme or the bodies is quite natural becouse without them how can it possible .
