I passed ICC Welding!

Charles H.

I was nervous to take the Structural Welding Certification as I've heard it's one of the hardest ICC Certifications there is. I took the Structural Welding Class and with the help of SI Certs, passed the test. I've also passed the Reinforced Concrete Certification with the help of SI Certs.

They have done an excellent job breaking everything down to make it easy to understand. The ability to work at your own pace is so great and their staff is there to help at the click of a button. There is no better, easier, and cost effective way to get your ICC Certifications than SI Certs. Thanks you guys again for all your help!

You guys are awesome.

Hello, I just recently passed the ICC welding exam using your training course (you guys are awesome and do an amazing job with your study material / methods!). I wanted to move on to becoming an AWS CWI and will be purchasing the course that SI Certs offers.

Passed Welding!

Gabe, I want to thank you for this welding online course. Both the modules and plans were very helpful. I went through each example problem and quiz. It really did give me the confidence for taking on the welding exam. I passed today. Thank you again!

CAREER TIP:

Structural Welding (S2) requires that you take and pass the ICC Structural Steel and Bolting (S1) certification. The ICC Welding certification builds a foundation for welding inspection and the highly-desired CWI certification. You can take both S1 and S2 training courses with the SI Certs’ Steel Bundle package above and save.

Chief Technical Advisor for Special Inspection

"Welding, metallurgy, procedures, qualification, and the other critical elements that involve the ICC Structural Welding certification do not have to be so daunting for those breaking into welding inspection.

The code books are plentiful, but that is why I created this course. With our thorough teaching involving over 40 hours of online instruction, we teach the necessary concepts and direct you to the test-worthy areas in all of the code books. We take away the guesswork with targeted teaching and relevant quiz and practice test questions.

Using our Training Plan Set, we also teach structural blueprint reading as it involves welding. You will understand materials, symbols, connections, and learn how to read structural welding on structural plans. We will get you ready to take and pass the plans test. And I’m one click away to help clarify any confusing welding concepts!"
