 The American Welding Society “Certified Welding Inspector” preparatory course is designed to offer the applicant the knowledge and ability to pass the CWI/CWE test. The course covers the navigation of American Petroleum Institute Standard 1104 as well as practical solutions for complying with the code. The course also covers the theoretical science behind metallurgy, inspection practices, and non-destructive examination. The participants will receive instruction in the following necessary skill blocks:  The CWI course will be 8 days (approximately 64 hrs) starting on Fridays, ending on the following Friday followed by the Part B Exam on Saturday. ACS has elected to offer the 8 day prep course to allow the students to be better prepared for the exam. This gives each student more course prep time and allows the instructors more individual time with students. This will only increase students' knowledge, have the student more prepared for the exam, and help the students' investment in passing the exam. The American Welding Society (AWS) and proctors will then administer the Part B Exam ONLY on Saturday following the prep course. The other 2 sections of the Exam, Part A and Part C, will ONLY be administered at a Prometric Computer Based Testing Facility. All 3 exams are timed.  Please refer to the AWS Website for more details on the Exam.
