How do the CIP 2 vocabulary games work?
There are 4 games built on 19 CIP 2 terms. In Guess the Term, a clue describes one term and you have six tries to spell it, with green, yellow and gray letters showing how close you are. In Term Match, six terms appear as colored tiles; swap neighbors to line up three or more of the same term, and each match shows what the term means. In Term Pairs, twelve face-down cards hide six pairs of terms; flip two at a time to find each pair, and every pair you find shows what the term means. In Term Search, five terms hide in a grid of letters, reading across, down or diagonally; drag across a term to circle it, and each term you find shows what it means.
Where do the CIP 2 terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the AMPP (Association for Materials Protection and Performance) content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.
What is the AMPP CIP Level 2 certification?
The AMPP Certified Coatings Inspector (CIP Level 2) is the advanced coatings inspector credential from AMPP (formerly NACE CIP Level 2 and SSPC PCI Level 2). It validates advanced inspection competency for liquid and non-liquid coatings on diverse substrates, including advanced destructive and nondestructive testing, specialty coatings such as thermal spray metallizing and pipeline FBE, coating failure analysis, and specification interpretation. It is the required credential for many pipeline, offshore, and industrial inspection roles and is a prerequisite for CIP Level 3.
What are the prerequisites for CIP Level 2?
To certify as CIP Level 2, candidates must successfully complete the CIP Level 1 course and maintain active Basic Coatings Inspector certification, accumulate 2 years of verifiable coating-related work experience (per AMPP's Accepted Work Experience Requirements), successfully complete the CIP Level 2 course, and complete the Ethics for the Corrosion Professional course (or an AMPP-approved equivalent training). Candidates must then submit an online application for approval before sitting for the theory and practical exams.
