Is it for me?

The CSWIP Welding Inspector course is designed for inspection engineers and supervisory staff. Those with little or no previous welding experience are advised to attend the Certificate in Visual Inspection of Welds course to prepare for this course.

This CSWIP Welding Inspection course is also available as an online course. The online material covers approximately 3 days learning. At the end of the package, those wishing to progress to examination, will complete a further 1 day practical training followed by one day examination at one of TWI's Training Centres (provided that entry requirements are met).

What will I learn?

This course will teach you the duties and responsibilities of a welding inspector including fusion welding processes, typical weld defects, types of steel (including carbon-manganese, low alloy and stainless steels), the hardening of steels, weldability, heat treatment, and parent metal defects.

The programme also includes visual inspection, the testing of parent metals and welds, and destructive and non-destructive test techniques.

You will also learn welder and procedure approval, codes and standards, and an outline of safe working practices. 

There will also be the opportunity to practice examination questions while undergoing continuous and end-of-course assessment. If you meet the CSWIP requirements for eligibility, you will be able to complete the relevant CSWIP examination on day 5 of the course.
