Installing, Calibrating, and Maintaining
Electronic Instruments (TI25)
TI25 isan excellent course that enablesthe participant to
study and understand individual instrumentsand instru-
ment loop wiring principlesand conceptsutilizing common
electronic instrumentsfound in most operating plants. The
course takesaway the pressuresof the plant atmosphere to
just get the system back up and running so the participant
can understand what isreally happening with the equipment
and instrument systems.

Cert icat e Programs
ISA and the Automation StandardsCompliance Institute
(ASCI) offer three certicate programsthat will increase
knowledge and awarenessof the ISA84 standard.
Each certicate program includesspecialized training on
ISA84 and an exam that isoffered through the Prometric
testing centers. Those who register for the training course
and the certicate program and passthe exam will be issued
an ISA certicate specifying that they have successfully
completed that certicate program.
Certicate 1:
ISA84 SIS Fundamentals Specialist
Thiscerticate requiresthe completion of the four-day
instructor-led ISA training course EC50with exam (or the
online, instructor-assisted version, EC50E, with exam).
ThisCerticate isrequired to apply for Certicate 2 and
Certicate 3. No application required.
Certicate 2:

Renewal
Because these are certicatesand not certications, they do
not have to be renewed ; however, a certicate will only
be considered current for three years. In order to extend the
current statusof a certicate, you will be required to score 70%
or above on a 20-question ISA84 Certicate Knowledge
Review Exam.
