like everything else, its easier to be the referee than the game player
a top notch welder can make a lot of money in other countries,
equivalent to a surgeon

very true, saw on one episode of extreme engineering a welder from south africa welding something in france and the man was like GOD......respect and MONEY!!
But he did have some serious skills.
I dunno about this exam but best of luck thou

Wrote it like 11 years ago.Not so hard as people think. Been doing welding inspection since 1997.Its AWS certified.Test is in three parts Fundamentals has 150 questions, Code has 50 questions and Practical has 50 questions.
2 Hrs each.
Pass mark is 70% on each.
Once you pass, every 3 years you have to re-certify.
Classes cost 5000 tt
Exam 1100 US.
Call me for any pointers 791-2345.
I have all the latest info and manuals
Questions are a bit tricky, for example everything is multiple choice, you have 5 answers per question, 4 of the 5 answers are correct but only one pertains to the question.
Its more based on judgement and knowledge of the codes and standards that governs what is acceptable or rejectable in your eyes.

Its not CXC stephon, its an exam for Adults, and the failure rate is high.
