CWB Welding Supervisor — Aluminum (CSA W47.2)
CWB Welding Supervisor certification preparation for aluminum, covering metallurgy, process selection, distortion, defect recognition, and CSA W47.2 quality assurance requirements for aerospace, marine, and industrial aluminum fabrication.
Course Overview
This course prepares candidates for CWB Welding Supervisor certification in aluminum welding under CSA W47.2, the Canadian standard for certification of companies for fusion welding of aluminum. The programme addresses the specific metallurgical, process, and quality assurance challenges of aluminum welding supervision, including alloy selection, process parameters, distortion management, and defect recognition. It is applicable to supervisors working in aerospace, marine, structural, and industrial manufacturing sectors where aluminum welding is performed to Canadian codes.
Who Should Attend
Post-secondary education in engineering, engineering technology, or welding technology, OR relevant experience in aluminum welding supervision. CSA W47.2 eligibility criteria apply.
