Foreword
(This Foreword is not a part of AWS QC11-96, Specification for Qualification and Certification of Level II -Advanced Welders, but is included for information purposes only).
This standard extends the work of the American Welding Society to further define a national skill standard forthe Level II - Advanced Welder. The American Welding Society was awarded Grant #V244B30006-95 for$1,059,626 by the U.S. Department of Education to develop standards and a certification program for weldersduring the period from July 1993 to July 1996. The total program cost is $2,132,094, of which 49.7%($1,072,468) is an in-kind contribution by AWS.
To accomplish its goals, AWS organized an Education Grant Committee, which has representatives from allsegments of the welding industry, including labor organizations and educational institutions. This Committee hasoverseen the efforts toward a standard for the qualification and certification of the Level II - Advanced Welder.
The development of this National Skill Standard has involved the participation of the welding industry througha survey designed to determine a consensus of welder skills and competencies required for individuals seekingto continue the development of their welding skills.
The results of this industry survey were an occupational task analysis that formed the basis for curriculumguidelines to guide the training of the Level II - Advanced Welder candidate.
This standard defines the requirements for the certification of such individuals and their entry into the NationalRegistry of Level II - Advanced Welders.
Comments and suggestions for improvement of this standard are welcome. They should be sent in writing tothe Secretary, AWS Certification Committee, American Welding Society, 550 N.W. LeJeune Road, Miami,Florida 33126.
