Codes and Standards Training Institute (CASTI)
Codes and Standards Training Institute (CASTI) began in 1982 when its founder, John E. Bringas, P.Eng., taught our first course in welding metallurgy. Since then, CASTI has presented over 1,000 courses internationally, specializing in the area of engineering codes and standards (API, ASME, ASTM, CSA, NACE, ISO, and others). The CASTI instructor staff includes members of many codes and standards committees as well as globally-recognized professional engineers with international accreditations.
CASTI technical courses are developed for inspectors, engineers, technologists, designers, supervisors, maintenance, and quality assurance personnel who work for owners-users such as petrochemical plants, refineries, gas plants, power plants, oil/gas pipelines, pulp and paper mills, municipalities, or those who work for engineering procurement companies, inspection companies, fabricators, and regulators in governing jurisdictions.
CASTI is proud to be an IACET* Authorized Training Provider. IACET's Criteria and Guidelines for Quality Continuing Education and Training Programs is the basis for each CASTI training course. ANSI/IACET Standard 1-2007 addresses processes for designing, developing, and delivering continuing education and training. Through an emphasis on the educational process, this Standard ensures clear program development and valuable learning outcomes for all CASTI courses. As an IACET Authorized Training Provider, CASTI issues globally-recognized Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for all of its courses in accordance with ANSI/IACET Standard 1-2007.
With over 40 different courses, CASTI has become a world leader in the field of codes and standards training.

CASTI Publishing Inc.
CASTI Publishing Inc. was launched in 1992 with the release of the CASTI Metals Black Book - North American Ferrous Data, a metals data book which has sold over 20,000 copies in more than 80 countries worldwide. We now publish the CASTI Metals Data Book Series (4 volumes), the CASTI Corrosion Book Series (4 volumes), and the CASTI Guidebook Series to the ASME Codes (5 volumes). These publications are available as traditional printed books and as fully searchable e-books.
In 2002, CASTI Publishing produced it's first online engineering database that includes all of the ASME Boiler and Pressure and Pressure Piping Code Interpretations with a fast and powerful search engine. This was followed up with the design and creation of the Passport to Steel Online Database, which includes data from nearly 50,000 steels and is offered through ASTM at www.astm.org.
As a contracted service, CASTI Publishing has assisted other technical publishers, industry organizations, trade associations, and technical societies with electronically transforming their own intellectual property into e-books, e-learning modules, and online databases.
