On 8-12 December 2025, BCSA are holding the new, 4.5-day technical training course on protective coatings and intumescent fire protection for steel structures. While other paint training schemes exist, they typically involve two or three weeks of time away from work and are costly.

Much of their content is not relevant to steel fabrication, such as the painting of concrete, powder coating, tank lining, pipelines, water jetting, ships and more. The RCP training course exclusively focuses on subjects and processes relevant to steel fabrication, its protective coatings and fire protection. The course is shorter and more affordable than other training providers, yet technically comprehensive and relevant.

You will get learn how to use all the relevant testing instruments, with technicians on hand to assist. RCP Training has been developed by Dick Frost and the course instructors are well known, highly experienced, senior industry professionals. The course is also endorsed by BCF and approved by Elcometer Ltd, Hempel and Sherwin-Williams UK.
