Since 2000, Gas Certification Institute (GCI) has provided fundamental gas and liquid measurement training to thousands of measurement professionals in the oil and gas industry.
As we mark the 20-year anniversary of GCI, we are looking forward to providing measurement training that achieves three fundamental objectives:
- Provide education on the fundamentals of measurement that is based on industry standards.

With a clear mission to support measurement professionals in your company or operation, we are proud to announce the 2020 GCI class schedule. We will offer fundamental training in gas, liquids, and crude measurement, plus training on SCADA fundamentals at our training facility in Houston, Texas.
The 2020 GCI Class Schedule
We broke up the 2020 schedule to allow more time for companies and operators to arrange schedules and shift duties so that measurement professionals can be pulled away from their daily tasks to receive training.
First Quarter Schedule
We are planning to offer two classes during the first three months of the year:
- February 4-6: Fundamentals of Liquid Measurement
- February 11-21: Gas Measurement Fundamentals Certification
Mark your calendar for our first gas measurement training of 2020. The two-week course covering the fundamentals of gas measurement will fill up quickly.
Second Quarter Schedule
We are planning to offer six classes during the spring season. We felt this was important to allow companies and operators to make plans early in the year to send measurement personnel to Houston for training.
