The American Galvanizers Association (AGA) offers a variety of FREE continuing education courses on hot-dip galvanizing through its popular Galvanize It! seminar series. To facilitate learning, the courses are available in-person, online, and as webinars to ensure access to all architects, engineers, and specifiers.

The Core Galvanize It! seminar introduces you to the basics of hot-dip galvanized steel. Used in various applications in some of the harshest environments, HDG combats corrosion throughout the world. This course will examine the HDG process as well as other zinc coatings, and detail the intrinsic benefits galvanizing provides.

The Designing for Hot-Dip Galvanizing seminar will assist you in the design and integration of corrosion protection in your next project. The course examines the HDG process, ASTM specifications, design best practice, inspection, and preparing the galvanized surface for painting/powder coating.

The Sustainable Development & Hot-Dip Galvanizing seminar provides an in-depth analysis of the sustainable aspects of HDG, including zinc and the environment, LEED®, life-cycle assessment (LCA), life-cycle cost (LCC), environmental and economic case study comparisons, and much more.

The Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel for Parking Structures seminar provides an overview of the social, economic, and environmental benefits of incorporating HDG steel in parking structures. Content includes how galvanized steel benefits the overall look, safety, and construction of the garage, as well as the environmental and economic savings over the life of the parking structure.
