Plan the session

Tell us the number of people, their experience and the proposed location. The topics, equipment and timing need to be agreed before booking.

Training and testing are different

A training session helps staff build skills and understanding. If a job also requires a qualification test, discuss that separately.

Who delivers the training

Training is delivered by PWC's Certified International Welding Engineer, who has more than 20 years in welding engineering, QA and QC and has lectured on International Welding Engineer courses.

A training session is not a welder qualification test. If a contract requires testing, we discuss that as separate work.
