"The course was informative, thorough and pleasant. John's pacing was good, fielding of questions was appropriate and the use of humor/stories very entertaining. I feel better (much better) about my chances of passing the exam now. Of particular help were the instructions on how to navigate the books as well as the margin notes that were provided."
On API 510 Exam Preparation Course, October 31, 2011
"The course was very well put together. I have no complaints at all. After challenging the API 510 exam last September and failing I realize the importance and quality of this course and its significance."
On API 510, May 7, 2011
"I feel CASTI has given me the tools necessary to pass my Welding Examiners Paper 4. CASTI will be the only place I do codes training. Thanks CASTI!!!"
On ASME Section IX, September 20, 2011
"John presented the metallurgy parts of the course with utter clarity. Thanks for clearing away the little bits of fuzz on my understanding of basic carbon steel metallurgy."
On ASME Section IX, September 20, 2011
"This is my second CASTI course, both of which John has taught. In this second course, I was more prepared for how the classes would go because of the online pre-work and because I was more familiar with John's teaching style and methods. Overall this course was excellent and I became even more confident in using the codes to find information that was needed. Thanks again and see you again soon!"
On ASME Section IX, September 20, 2011
"Excellent course. CASTI has always delivered what they promised. With their help and your own determination, you will be successful."
On API RP 571, September 6, 2011
"John's knowledge of the course content and applicable codes was very impressive. His ability to disseminate the information with related historical and up-to-date applications kept delivery very interesting consistently throughout the four days. As someone who expects value for my time and expense, I am more than satisfied with what I gained from this experience. Thank you for providing a necessary service in an excellent format."
On API RP 571, September 6, 2011
"Mr. John Bringas was very good at presenting the course material. He is very enthusiastic about materials (carbon steel, stainless and other alloys). I would definitely recommend this course to my colleagues and even those in the industry that I compete with as a third party contractor. It is not the code (API 571) that I took this course for - it was the symmetry of the course content and the overall outcome. I would take this course again even if I had my API 571 certification."
On API RP 571, September 6, 2011
"This opened up a lot of doors for me with regards to my career path. Thanks John!"
On Intro to ASME Pressure Equipment Codes, August 30, 2011
"Very new to the codes. I have been working as a QC Examiner for only four months now. I learned a lot about different areas, especially how to use the different codes and navigate them. Very fast course - but a great starter. Glad I came. Thanks John!"
On Intro to ASME Pressure Equipment Codes, August 30, 2011
"Great job Dr. Bruce Ball; you are one of the best teachers I have had the pleasure of learning from. You have a very practical approach to teaching, which makes learning for a non-engineer type like me easier. Thanks, Great Job!"
On CSA Z662, June 17, 2011
"Very informative and useful course. Gives insight into where the code comes from and the intent behind it. Very useful and highly recommend this course. Dr. Ball was exceptional as well."
On CSA Z662, June 17, 2011
"I thought the course was very good and will take a CASTI course again and recommend it to others. Also Rich did an excellent job in communicating materials and making topics clear to all.
On AWS CWI Exam Preparation, June 11, 2011
"It has been several years since I attended a CASTI course and like previous years/experience I was not disappointed. With the direction QA/QC is going in the industry CASTI courses should become an industry mandatory training institute. Thanks again, John!!"
