- NACE International claims to be the worldwide society with universally accepted standards.
- The European Federation of Corrosion (EFC) is an association of individual European country Corrosion societies joined in a larger umbrella group known as the European Federation of Corrosion. They meet at an annual congress named EUROCORR.
- The Institute of Corrosion (I.Corr) is a United Kingdom-based organisation and offers designator letters after a name to suitably qualified members.
Collaborations
[edit]A cooperation between EFC and NACE was signed during the NACE Corrosion conference in San Diego, California in March 2003. The agreement improved benefit sharing between the two parties like discounts on publications and journal subscriptions. NACE and EFC will also publicize each other's event's and activities.
The Australasian Corrosion Association works with NACE in Australia and New Zealand offering accredited NACE courses in the Australasian region. The annual Corrosion & Prevention conference held in November each year presents original papers published in the Journal Corrosion & Materials.
