COURSE CODE: WPE-01
DURATION: SIX DAYS
COURSE OBJECTIVE

The profession of certified welding inspectors (CWIS) is no longer expected to just pass on the conclusion by saying ACCEPT/REJECT. Indeed, they are anticipated to playa high-ranking pivotal role in industry to communicate candidlyfor the corrective feedbacks, if required, from the departments pertaining to design, planning, procurement,quality-assurance, and production to deliver safely the international quality economical output by incorporating the state, federal & overseas government regulations.
