ARE YOU QUALIFIED TO TAKE THE API 510 EXAM?
As outlined in the Appendix B of the API 510 Standard, the minimum qualification requirements for API 510 Pressure Vessel inspector certification are based on the combination of education and experience related to pressure vessels. This experience must have been acquired within the last 10 years while employed by, or under contract with, an authorized inspection agency as defined in API 510.
Based on the 10th edition of API 510, a National Board certification is no longer accepted as a substitution for passing the exam.
Prior to submitting an application, please use the table below to determine if you qualify to take the API 510 exam:
Education | Minimum Years of Experience | Description of Experience Required |
---|---|---|
BS or higher in engineering or technology | 1 year | Supervision or performance of inspection activities as described in API 510 |
2-year degree or certificate in engineering or technology | 2 years | Design, construction, repair, operation, or inspection of pressure vessels, of which one year must be in supervision or performance of inspection activities as described in API 510 |

2. Continuing Professional Development (CPD) - Every 3 years
Beginning January 1, 2022, Continuing Professional Development (CPD) hours will be included in the 3-year recertification requirements. CPD activity must be relevant to the API 510 certification.
