CNG Fuel System Inspector Certification Information
NGVi CNG Fuel System Inspector Training teaches you to thoroughly and accurately inspect a CNG fuel system, including CNG fuel storage cylinders, for safety. However, receiving training does not label you as a Certified CNG Fuel System Inspector.
The NGVi CNG Fuel System Inspector Certification Exam provides an independent assessment of the knowledge and application of skills necessary for technicians to competently conduct a CNG fuel system inspection according to all applicable codes and standards. Certification designates that participants have sufficiently demonstrated the work-related knowledge, skills and competencies required to perform the tasks of a CNG fuel system inspector as measured in a written exam.
