    Qualification and Certification Training

    Qualification Test TrainingShielded Metal Arc WeldingAdditional training is available to graduates of the Lincoln BasicPlate and Sheet Metal Welding who wish to take an operator

    qualification test for AWS structural code work, and to graduatesof the Lincoln Pipe Welding Course who wish to take similar testsfor ASME (vertical-up) or API (vertical down) code work. Welderswith equivalent experience may also qualify for this training.

    Flux-Cored Arc Welding Self-Shielded/Gas-ShieldedClasses are available to companies and/or individuals who want topractice welding techniques for passing an operator qualificationtest or procedure qualification test. This course is also designedto give the proper application skills to an instructor for in-planttraining of FCAW-S (Innershield) and/or FCAW-G (UltraCore).

    Please Note for Qualification Courses One week is usually sufficient for anyone with welding

    experience in the process being tested.

    Customers must furnish plate of the type to be used inpracticing for the qualification tests.

    The cost of testing ranges from $150.00 to $300.00 for AWS,ASME or API codes and is paid directly to an independenttesting laboratory where the test sample is taken. Actual testcosts vary throughout the country depending upon the facility.
