in search of metallurgy and corrosion training
(OP)
Does anyone now of some good metallurgy training courses? I am a young API inspector wanting to educate myself in metallurgy and corrosion issues associated with the oil refining industry. I have 10 years refinery experience and am quite versed with API 571. I am also interested in refractory training as well.

It may also be offered at a local chapter in your area.

As a fellow corrosion engineer in the refining industry, I highly suggest the following groups, in order of applicability: NACE, API, UOP, and then ASM. (Nothing against ASM, but you'll find more information regarding the petroleum refining industry elsewhere.)
You state you are quite versed with API 571 and that is excellent (especially since the document only premeired last year). In that case, you may want to take the "Damage Mechanisms" course offered by Equity Engineering (in part through API) which is the logical extension of that document.
