WELCOME TO THE JOHN ZINK INSTITUTE<br />

JOHN ZINK INSTITUTE’S MISSION STATEMENT<br />

Provide current and high-quality continuing education<br />

combining both theory and practice to improve the<br />

knowledge, performance and efficiency of our customers,<br />

partners and employees.<br />

If you’re an engineer or operator looking to optimize your plant or maximize<br />

your career, the JOHN ZINK INSTITUTE’S year-round accredited combustion and<br />

process courses are specifically designed to meet your needs. The JOHN ZINK<br />

INSTITUTE is <strong>John</strong> <strong>Zink</strong> <strong>Company</strong>’s educational organization.<br />

Choose from a variety of courses where you’ll learn how to optimize fired<br />

equipment and industrial application for safe, efficient and cost-effective<br />

operation with minimum pollution emissions.<br />

The JOHN ZINK INSTITUTE also offers on-site courses that can be customized<br />

for your facility. Our instructors, in collaboration with your staff, will tailor<br />

the curriculum to your plant’s actual equipment, providing focused study for<br />

practical implementation.<br />

At the JOHN ZINK INSTITUTE, our goal is to help expand your knowledge of<br />

today’s challenging process technologies and industrial applications —– so you<br />

can start working smarter.<br />

For more information on what courses are available, or to enroll online, visit<br />

RECEIVE A CERTIFICATE IN <strong>PROCESS</strong> COMBUSTION <strong>TECHNOLOGY</strong><br />

Students may earn a certificate in Process Combustion Technology if they<br />

successfully complete the following courses within a five-year time span:<br />

PB107 Process Burner Fundamentals<br />

PB108 Advanced Process Burners<br />

FL102 Process Flares<br />

Elective Any other IACET-accredited <strong>John</strong> <strong>Zink</strong> Institute course<br />

Most INSTITUTE courses are IACET-accredited. However, PB155 is an online<br />

prerequisite course for PB107 and is not currently IACET-accredited. Therefore it<br />

would not meet the requirements for the elective.<br />

Students do not need to apply or register for the certificate as the Institute<br />

Registrar automatically checks on a regular basis for students meeting the<br />

necessary requirements. No additional fees are required for the certificate,<br />

which is automatically sent to students meeting the requirements.<br />

This program was originally developed to recognize students typically working<br />

in refineries and chemical plants, taking consecutive courses to receive training<br />

in the combustion equipment in their plants. The certificate does not certify<br />

students for a particular position or task —– it merely recognizes they have met<br />

the requirements for the courses in the certificate program.<br />

ONLINE COURSES<br />

The JOHN ZINK INSTITUTE began offering online courses in 2006. Online courses<br />

are a simple and cost-effective learning tool. For more information visit<br />

www.johnzinkinstitute.com.<br />

TUITION<br />

Each participant will receive a hardcopy of a color training manual of the<br />

course presentation and a certificate of completion.<br />

The JOHN ZINK INSTITUTE takes pride in hosting classes with southern<br />

hospitality. Each registrant for a Tulsa class will receive a continental<br />

breakfast, complete lunch, morning and afternoon snacks and all-day<br />

complimentary beverages.<br />

TESTIMONIALS<br />

“ My thanks to all at the <strong>John</strong> <strong>Zink</strong> Institute for a class that was far and<br />

above what was expected. The information and understanding I walked<br />

away with was priceless to me. You could have charged twice as much<br />

and I would still recommend this course to anyone working in the<br />

landfill gas extraction industry.”<br />

– Engineering Technician<br />

“ This was the best heater training I have attended. The information was<br />

very practical and relates to day-to-day operations.”<br />
