But, if you receive the proper training and education you will be prepared for any situation that may arise when welding underwater. Underwater welding is one of the most demanding areas of welding. The training and certifications required to perform this type of welding varies on the area you wish to specialize in. The basic principles of underwater welding are the same as any welding performed on dry land, the only difference is that these techniques must be performed by welders underwater. Performing welding tasks under water makes these already dangerous tasks much more so.

The American Welding Society (AWS) has made it easier than ever to become a Certified Welding Educator (CWE). Have you ever considered teaching? This program is made for those welding professionals who are already in or want to be in the teaching field. The certification is designed to confirm that you have the talent, knowledge and ability to train new welders in the classroom and through hands-on training. The tests for the CWE and for the Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) are identical except that the Part C: Code Book part is not a requirement for the CWE test. You can.
