Welding Inspector Training

This online resource is intended to be used in conjunction with the face to face class being held in Duffield Va starting on 8 September 2019.  Meetings will be held from 5:30 PM till 8:30 PM with some shorter and some longer depending on the topic. The content that is online is part of your final grade. 

This is a collection of resources used in previous courses that may be useful to those studying on their own.  Please use the forum for any questions about inspection topics. 

Coming Soon!

This resource will address the AWS Book of Specifications in a manner to help the student better understand using and code/specification and also make them more prepared for the AWS part B exam. 

Individuals using these resources should already have a strong understanding of welding and inspection fundamentals, have suitable reading skills, and have basic communications skills. 

 This is an online resource however some participants may have the opportunity to attend face to face meetings. Whenever possible, those will be recorded and made available here.

This online section will be utilized as a repository for some materials, question bank for quizzes, and a platform for discussion.  The effectiveness of this site is based upon your level of interest and participation.

Participants are encouraged to share information and challenge the instructor. 

You will have to participate in activities to continue if you are a "free" participant.

Under Development

This course/forum is intended to be a closed community resource for those people needing some assistance understanding some of the topics they are learning. This is also a resource for all of us to build our knowledge and skill by helping others. 

Debate based upon facts is encouraged. Respect is a necessity. Being right is sometimes not as valuable as being wrong! 

This IS NOT the place for making fun of anyone or calling out their errors in anything less than a professional manner. All responses will be monitored. 

This site/forum is owned by an individual and not a company so I get to make the policies. 

Have a great day and weldcome.
