How to Become a Certified Welder

"A dub ya ps..." you mean a double U aka W... lmao I hate it when ppl say DUB YA. But good information

Rest in peace Wyatt you truly helped me as a young high schooler pursuing a career in this field nearly a decade ago. You will truly be missed and appreciated!

RIP

It’s confusing when you can hear the phone vibrate but not feel it.... lol
OK video. Glad most of the distraction was during the commercial. :)

Hi,great presentation.can i get link to download the welding specifications book ur using thanks

I’m a journeyman in my trade, and looking to switch trades (to the pipefitters); I can’t be the only one who’s having an insanely hard time figuring out how to certify, and stay certified, without having a full time job as a fitter to begin with. Anyone smelling what I’m stepping in? I’m an accomplished tradesman, and even I can’t make heads or tails of it. I get a different answer from everyone I talk to. An employer will certify, a school will not, but employers don’t want to risk hiring someone that isn’t licensed!

I don’t think the guys in the comments quite understand what it means to be “certified” and the 1,000’s of various certifications there are and what they mean and what thickness base material test allows you to weld on doing code work or following a WPS. Got a video for them?

So what’s the best way to become a certified welder after you get your GED/HS Diploma Equivalent? Where do I go and what programs do I look into exactly? I live in Rhode Island.

What is the fastest certification

Get to the point!!!

I'm so lost

I wanna be come a welder here in Florida. But idk whether I should go to school or go through the union.

His phone range at least 3 times lmfao

Mr. For president XD

And as usual the health and safety nazis, have struck again. Making things near damn impossible to accomplish, at a price point no one can afford, and a competency period that is just rediculous.

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Paul,  The AWS D17.1  is a broad specification....  You can use it as an operator welding qualification/certification and also use the same specification to qualify a specific weldment.  Additionally, you can use this specification for a welding qualification for automatic welding machine applications.  Our sole purpose for these particular videos is to help answer the question.  How can I be a certified welder?  If you are a one man company, you can follow the basics rules that we have described in the videos but most companies have a quality control dept.that usually identify their particular method of certification.  So in short,  all the welding operator testing and laboratory testing is a qualification. Once passed, becomes a welder certification.  thanks for the question... Mr. Tig

Mr Tig, I thought you test to get 'Qualified' to do a Certified process??? Any thoughts on this, Best Regards, Paul

Great, Thank you for sharing. Is there a mini welder pulse welding in your shirt pocket? :)
