External visual inspection training requirements

To register or renew as an external visual requalifier, the facility must ensure that their personnel have a valid training certificate. Staff must demonstrate knowledge of the CSA B339 standard and be able to consistently follow its requirements.

Transport Canada is familiar with certain training organizations for cylinder requalifiers:

Propane Training Institute, a division of the Canadian Propane Association

Course: 100-04 Cylinder Visual Inspection and Requalification
Telephone: 1-877-784-4636
Email: training@propane.ca

Fuels Learning Centre

Course: Visual Inspection & Requalification of Propane Cylinders
Telephone: 1-855-267-0409
Email: info@fuelslc.com

Applicants may attest that their personnel have attended one of these courses by submitting copies of training certificates issued by the trainer. Please note that training certificates are valid for 3 years and that anyone testing cylinders must be re-trained every 3 years.
