Have the pressure vessel design reviewers of the Rong Biao Wei been removed?

Strengthen qualification management and conduct eligibility checks! It won’t be canceled!

There is no certificate anymore, but the qualifications can be found on the website; so it can’t really be considered cancelled either

You created this rumor; things have been reformed. Before August 2017, documents were issued in paper form, but now they are in electronic format, and one can go to the Rongbiao website to enter their ID number to check them. It was previously linked to the employer, but now it’s a personal matter; there’s no more field for the employer’s name on the qualification certificate. Moreover, previously Rongbiao was the only certification body; after the reform, power was distributed, leading to a competitive landscape.

“If you don’t know, ask – why then any rumors? According to the Notice of the General Office of the Quality Inspection Administration on Issues Related to the Supervision of the Safety of Pressure-bearing Special Equipment (Quality Inspection Office Special Letter [2017] No. 1336), item (III) concerns the qualifications of personnel responsible for the design approval of pressure vessels and pressure pipelines. Persons engaged in the design review and approval of pressure vessels, as well as the design review and verification of pressure pipelines (hereinafter referred to as design approval personnel), and those involved in the analytical design of pressure vessels (hereinafter referred to as analytical design personnel) are no longer required to obtain the corresponding qualifications in accordance with Article 6 of the \"Rules for Permitting the Design of Pressure Vessels and Pressure Pipelines\" (TSG R1001-2008). Pressure vessel design firms and pressure pipeline design firms (hereinafter collectively referred to as design firms) may conduct training and assessments for design approval personnel and design analysts either on their own or by entrusting third-party professional agencies, to ensure that they possess the necessary capabilities. ........ It can be assessed \"by the unit itself,\" in which case that approval certificate becomes useless. It is said that when renewing the certification for the unit, examiners without a certificate are given two additional essay questions in the written test.
