Woke up Christmas morning with an email from AWS congratulating me on my test with my test scores. I passed everything on the first try (Thanks to SI Certs). That really made my Christmas.
I passed my second time around using SI certs!
I thought SI Certs training itself is really great.
SI Certs has been extremely helpful. I flew through part A sample exams in an hour with around a 95% score, and part C I can get through in about 2 hours with around a 90% score. So I'm fairly confident I will have no problem with those.
I just took my test last week and got an 86% I ended up getting SI certs and Atlas. SI certs was better by a long run! I ended up not even using atlas anymore.
I took the Si training certs course. It is good presents the information well and in an organized fashion focusing on one exam at a time. I liked that they give you review quizzes most every time that you log back in. as well as quizzes at the end of each module so that you can see where you need to study more. as well as the timed mock exams to help simulate the actual exams.
I also used SI Certs, I used their full course(Part A, B, C). It was extremely helpful and I wouldn’t have got my CWI certification without it.
If you don't pass it (the CWI exam) the 1st time, I'd suggest using the study materials available from sicerts.com.
The si certs stuff is really good as well. I was reading some of the other comments. If you are worried about part B, get the si certs stuff. You will get molds (AWS molds are better but si certs are ok) , inspection tools, the actual fake code AWS uses for the test, fake WPS,PORs,fake heat treating bits, and destructive testing bits as well. SI certs will have these modules in the different parts. You will have practice tests at the end of each module and a couple bigger tests.
Any advice on part B? Taking mine next month
[Answered by the user below] I studied with sicerts.com.
SI Certs was really good and helped me.
He (my husband) retook part A & B a second time and passed part A the second time but not part B… because he failed part B twice they required a certain number of retraining I believe 20 hours or less.. that’s when he signed up for SI certs for part b training and passed
Ive been studying with the SI Certs 6 month CWI online course. I really like how the course is laid out and I feel like they give you a really good amount of information and teach you in a way that you can retain what you’re learning.
I used SIcerts as my prep and did very well and passed all 3 parts on my first attempt.
SI certs was pretty good.
SIcerts.com splits up the test into three parts that you can buy as a bundle or individually. They also have plastic inspection coupons that aren’t of the same quality as the AWS exam ones but still decent enough to practice on. They take you step by step through the book of specs so that you’ll have it down pat going into the exam. I used there bundle to study for the exam and got an 88 on my part a and a 93 on both part b and c.
I enjoyed the SI certs online class
For me it was between Atlas CWI or SI Certs. I went with SI Certs, not disappointed
If you are looking at self study instead of a seminar, the SI certs program is great. I bought it in january
[This is comment on a post titled "How to study for AWS CWI without paying a ton of money."]
There's a podcast out there called "the welding codex" where 2 guys go through d1.1 clause by clause, great to listen to at work. I also paid for sicerts training, all online, they send you plastic replicas and have tons of practice tests.
What was invaluable about it (the CWI course) was getting the plastic replicas for Part B, they were very high quality and gave me a lot of confidence going into the practical part of the exam. The other nice about the course was the practice tests, they were timed and were in random order and did a good job replicating the actual exams. All in all I'm glad I did it. It's a legit course and it was beneficial to have some structure to guide me through studying.
You should try the aws course and seminar or you can do SIcerts online program which I recommend
