As instructors, we have a great responsibility to be knowledgeable about many aspects of the welding trade. We will never know everything but we should always try to move forward.
I will be starting a course to help instructors become a little more familiar with the requirements for welder qualification testing. This course will be online and also have a weekly online meeting that will be for participants only. The intended start date is 16 June 2020 but you can start now on getting familiar with the site and content. Our 1st online meeting will be on that date.

Signing Up
There is no fee at this time and should a fee be added, you will have the option to opt out with no obligation. Though I would love to generate some revenue, I will wait until a few people have given me some feedback.
You can sign up for general access to the Moodle site at https://inspection.weldingclassroom.org/login/signup.php . That will not get you to the course but will make sure you can login.
