ONLINE PROGRAMS
Certified Welding Inspector Pre-Seminar
This self-paced interactive online program combines Welding Fundamentals, Safety in Welding, Fabrication
Math II, Understanding Welding Symbols, Metallurgy for the Non-Metallurgist: Fundamentals, and the Science of
Non-Destructive Testing into a single package to prepare CWI candidates for the AWS CWI seminar and Part A
(Fundamentals) of the examination. Approx. 72 hours...................................................................... $1,150/$865
If purchased with a CWI Instructor-Lead Seminar..............................................................................................$750
Welding Fundamentals
A comprehensive overview of the basic principles of welding. The course covers the basic science and practical
application of the most commonly utilized welding processes. Topics include welding terminology, weld design,
welding safety, electrical theory, the weldability of metals, and welding quality control.
Approx. 14 hours. 14 PDHs................................................................................................................ $470/$350
Safety in Welding
An extensive overview of welding safety in an accessible and engaging format. Topics include welding hazards,
safety equipment, ventilation, welding in confined spaces, and safety precautions and specifications.
Approx. 3 hours. 3 PDHs.......................................................................................................................$99/$74
Fabrication Math I
This introduction to basic math skills provides a combination of clear step-by-step verbal and visual explanations
that make each concept easy to understand and remember. Topics include place value simplification, estimation,
measurement, and the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of whole numbers, fractions, decimals and
mixed numbers. Approx. 18 hours. 18 PDHs...................................................................................... $510/$385
Fabrication Math II
Picking up where Fabrication Math I left off, Fabrication Math II covers the basic areas of math that welders,
welding foremen, welding supervisors and other welding professionals require to estimate, plan, and produce
quality welds. Topics include unit conversions, percentages and ratios, and the calculation of area and volume.
Approx. 15 hours. 15 PDHs................................................................................................................ $495/$370
Economics of Welding
In this course, participants learn to identify, measure, and manage the costs of production in order to reduce costs
and ensure quality. Topics include welding process variables, comparing welding processes, calculating weld
metal volume and deposition rates, and managing the costs of labor, materials, equipment, and overhead.
