EXAMINATIONS

After you've been a CWI for a minimum of six andyour career has evolved into supervisory ormanagerial responsibilities in the field of qualitycontrol/quality assurance, you will want to applyfor the highest level of certification : a SeniorCertified Welding Inspector, or SCWI . SCWIs arein demand by companies looking to have it all- skilled, seasoned welding managers who can dothe job and supervise others.

The SCWI is an individual who is in a supervisoryattained a higher level of experience than a CWI.The successful applicant also has professionaleducation which has provided the opportunity tosolve problems with a scope and level of difficultybeyond those experienced as a CWI.

Every CWI who has held CWI certification for a minimum of six years and possesses the requisite 15 years of experience, is not necessarily a candidate for the SCWI exam. Ideal candidates for the SCWI exam have sought out opportunities to expand their careers. Senior Certified Welding Inspector candidates typically will have supplemented their basic education or gained extensive problem-solving experience. Such a background should provide them with a deep and specific understanding of advanced NDE topics, quality systems, procedure qualifications, and other SCWI knowledge areas as identified below.

Experience Requirements:SCWI applicants must document direct work
