Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is AWS Online Instructor-Led Learning?

    AWS Online Instructor-Led Learning is an interactive, virtual classroom experience that combines the expert guidance of a live AWS instructor with the convenience of remote access, allowing participants to engage in real-time discussions, receive immediate feedback, and master complex welding topics from any location.

  • Who should enroll in Online Instructor-Led Training?

    This training is ideal for busy professionals—including welders, inspectors, engineers, and supervisors—who require a structured, scheduled learning environment and direct access to industry experts, but cannot travel for multi-day in-person seminars.

  • What topics are covered in the online instructor-led courses?

    The curriculum spans a wide range of specialized subjects, including the 8-Week CWI Seminar, Welding & Coating Inspection, ASME Section IX, and In-Service Welding, as well as focused sessions on productivity, visual quality control, and interpreting WPS/PQR documents.

  • What materials and technology are required for the virtual sessions?

    Participants typically need a computer with a reliable internet connection and a hands-free audio device. For specific courses like the CWI Seminar, AWS provides physical study materials, codebooks, and proprietary visual inspection tools (such as plastic weld replicas) that are shipped directly to the student’s location.

  • Do I earn Professional Development Hours (PDHs) for these online courses?

    Yes—participants who complete AWS Online Instructor-Led courses earn Professional Development Hours (PDHs) and Continuing Education Units (CEUs). For example, the 8-Week CWI Seminar provides 40 PDHs, which can be used toward the maintenance or renewal of professional certifications.
