Participants

DVS-IIW welding supervisors with documented further training and professional experience in the certified area.

Content

Our DVS-IIW welding supervisor program qualifies participants with a DVS-IIW certificate documenting each participant’s expertise at the time of course completion; the certificate is valid for life.

Unlike a DVS-IIW certificate, IIW certificates are valid for just three years, so professionals with the IIW qualification need to take part in further training programmes such as courses, seminars and committee work to keep their expertise and qualification current and valid. This also means that an IIW certificate reveals how current the holder’s knowledge is. Certification is not mandatory for welding supervisors, but the knowledge gained may have a positive effect in technical discussion for company certification.

Certification is based on the respective International Welding Diploma for the following certificates:

Requirement

International Welding Diploma as an:

• International Welding Engineer
• International Welding Technologist
• International Welding Specialist

International Welding Certificate

• Certified International Welding Engineer
• Certified International Welding Technologist
• Certified International Welding Specialist

Professional and further training in welding plays a key role in maintaining high quality standards in practice. Sadly, the greatest problem for many participants is finding the time for it. We also provide remote courses as an ideal extension to the training programmes we already provide. Being able to decide where and how you would like to learn gives you a far more flexible training experience.
