AWS Certification Photo Requirements

AWS adopts the same guidelines for photos as does the U.S. Department of State for passport photos

(see link). The acceptance of your photo is at the discretion of the AWS, please review the AWS photo

requirements before submitting your photo.

Your photo is a vital part of your application. To learn more, review the information below on how to provide a suitable photo to avoid processing delays. The acceptance of your photo is always at the discretion of the AWS.

We recommend you use a professional passport photo service to ensure your photo meets all the requirements.

If you are applying for a Certification, you must provide one (1) passport-style photograph. Your photo must be:

• In color • Printed on photo quality paper • 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 mm) in size • Sized such that the head is between 1 inch and 1 3/8 inches (between 25 and 35 mm) from the

bottom of the chin to the top of the head. • Taken within the last 6 months to reflect your current appearance • Taken in front of a plain white or off-white background • Taken in full-face view directly facing the camera • With a neutral facial expression and both eyes open • Taken in clothing that you normally wear on a daily basis:

o Uniforms should not be worn in your photo, except religious clothing that is worn daily. o Do not wear a hat or head covering that obscures the hair or hairline, unless worn daily

for a religious purpose. Your full face must be visible, and the head covering must not cast any shadows on your face.

o Headphones, wireless hands-free devices or similar items are not acceptable in your photo.

o If you normally wear prescription glasses, a hearing device or similar articles, they may be worn for your photo.

o Dark glasses or non-prescription glasses with tinted lenses are not acceptable unless you need them for medical reasons (a medical certificate may be required)

o Glare on glasses is not acceptable in your photo. Glare can be avoided with a slight downward tilt of the glasses or by removing the glasses or by turning off the camera flash.

• Dimensions: The image dimensions must be in a square aspect ratio (the height must be equal to the width). Minimum acceptable dimensions are 600 x 600 pixels. Maximum acceptable dimensions are 1200 x 1200 pixels.

While we recommend you use a professional passport photo service to ensure your photo meets all the requirements, you may take the photo yourself. Hand-held self-portraits are not acceptable. Photos must not be digitally enhanced or altered to change your appearance in any way. Please use reliable references for guidance on taking your own photo. There are several online software tools for this purpose. It is your responsibility to ensure the tool you use produces a photo that meets AWS specifications.

Renewals/Recertification - Change of Appearance

If you cannot be identified from your current photo on file with AWS, you should submit a new photo with your renewal or recertification application.

Examination results will NOT be released until we receive the 2 x 2 inch color passport-style photograph. To avoid delays in receiving your examination results, please mail your photo to the address listed below:

American Welding Society Certification Department Photo Center 8669 NW 36 Street Suite 130 Miami, FL 33166-6672

Revised 11/02/18 cc

RECOMMENDED PRESTUDY FOR

PREPARATION FOR CERTIFIED WELDING INSPECTOR EXAM COURSE AT HOBART INSTITUTE OF WELDING TECHNOLOGY

If you are planning to take the CWI course and exam and you would like to study prior to the course, you may consider: 1. Obtain a copy of the AWS QC1 Specification for AWS Certification of Welding Inspectors.

This is available free as a download from the American Welding Society website at http://www.aws.org/library/doclib/QC1-2016.pdf. This is the standard for all AWS-CWIs. Read it completely.

2. When you have selected the code you will use for the Part C – Open Code Book part of the

exam, you should purchase that code book. This may be purchased from http://www.welding.org/product-category/books/welding-codes-specifications/ or directly from the publisher. Look how it is organized: the table of contents, the index. Learn how to find information quickly and understand what each section covers. Bring this code book with you to the class.

3. Obtain a copy of the AWS – Part B Examination Book of Specifications. This is available free as a download from the American Welding Society website at https://www.aws.org/library/doclib/cwi-partB-BOS-customary20170418.pdf. Read it from cover-to-cover including the footnotes. This book of specifications is the standard you will use for the Part B examination.

4. If you are experienced in welding but have limited experience in welding inspection, you may choose to attend the Arc Welding Inspection (AWI520) at the Hobart Institute to get basic inspection training. http://www.welding.org/students/continuing-education/technical-training/. This course is not a prerequisite requirement for the CWI course, but can be very beneficial for someone starting out in welding inspection.

5. If you cannot attend the Arc Welding Inspection, you may want to purchase the AWS Certification Manual for Welding Inspectors. http://www.welding.org/product/certification-manual-welding-inspectors/. It is for self-study. Read each section and answer the questions at the end of each section.

6. If you lack welding process experience, you may want to take the 4-day Welding for the Non-Welder course at Hobart Institute. http://www.welding.org/students/continuing-education/technical-training/ . It provides welding process information and hands-on practice with oxyacetylene welding, shielded metal arc, gas tungsten arc, gas metal arc and flux cored arc welding processes.

7. You may take the online Welding Symbols Course http://www.welding.org/product/symbols-for-welding/ on the Hobart Institute website. Also, the Visual Inspection Course is online at https://www.welding.org/product/visual-inspection-2/ which may be helpful to you.

Veterans Benefits VA Benefits Can Cover Your Certification Test Costs If you're a veteran with G.I. Bill Benefits and seeking a new job or striving to move ahead in your present job, don’t miss the opportunity to strengthen your career opportunities and earnings with additional licensing or certification. As an eligible veteran, you may be reimbursed for your test costs.

VA licensing and certification benefits: The new licensing and certification benefit allows the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to pay you, if you're eligible, for a test for a license or certification, including several offered by AWS. You can receive reimbursement for approved licensing or certification tests you take on or after March 1, 2001. These tests must be specifically approved for the G.I. Bill.

Note: The VA covers only the cost of the test itself. You may be responsible for other fees connected with

obtaining certification. How Do I Apply For Benefits? The first step is to take the test for your desired certification. With test results in hand, you can then apply for test cost reimbursement from the VA. You will need to complete and submit the Application for Licensing and Certification Testing Fee Reimbursement to the VA office that handles your education benefits. Check the map on the Internet site at www.gibill.va.gov to find the location nearest you.

Never filed a claim for VA education benefits before? You’ll also need to submit an application for benefits. Check below to find the correct form for your needs. You can print either one directly from the VA’s website or call 1-888-GIBILL-1 (1-888-442-4551) to request the form by mail.

• Veteran or on active duty? Use VA Form 22-1990, which you can complete and submit right online. Visit www.gibill.va.gov and click Electronic Application.

• Eligible child or spouse of a veteran? You need VA Form 22-5490. Send the application form along with the other information above to the VA regional office that processes your claim. The addresses are printed right on the forms.
