'''Valve Course''' is recommended for personnel involved in liquid pipeline operation and maintenance.It provides basic instruction for the most common pipeline valves and [[Actuators]] used on pipelines. Participants visit manufacturing facilities to see firsthand how [[Valves]] and actuators are made. Field trips serve as a learning experience in the assembly and disassembly of valves and actuators, whenever possible. Participants receive handouts and other materials.
