What is PPD Level III Certification?

The Society of Piping Engineers and Designers (SPED) has worked with industry to establish four levels of Professional Piping Designer Certification.  PPD certification has become a widely accepted 3rd party credential of pipe designer competency.

PPD Level III allows pipers to demonstrate they have the knowledge needed to layout typical process plant equipment. 

 

 

Note: PPD Level III exam accreditation is NOT guaranteed and final certification subject to SPED application review.
