AWS QC10 PDF
This specification establishes the minimum requirements for trainees to receive AWS SENSE training certificate for full or partial completion of the Level I—Entry Welder program. SENSE training organizations are free to exceed these minimum requirements.
This specification defines practical knowledge examinations, as well as the workmanship and performance qualification tests that require a minimum level of reading, computational and manipulative skills to successfully complete.
All individuals that meet the specified training certificate criteria will be listed in the AWS SENSE Certificate Database provided that:
(1) the training facility is a SENSE Accredited Training Program (ATP) per the requirements of AWS QC21, Specification for AWS Accreditation of SENSE Welder Training Programs
(2) the required proof(s) of completion are submitted to AWS along with applicable fees.
Organizations that are not a SENSE Accredited Training Program may use this specification, but individuals they instruct will not be eligible for SENSE training certificates, nor will they be listed in the AWS SENSE Certificate Database.
Although some questions on knowledge examinations may pertain to safety, this specification is not intended to address safety and health. Safety and health requirements are provided in ANSI Z49.1, Safety in Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes, as well as federal, state, and local government regulations. The responsibility for safety rests primarily with the trainee and the training organization during training.
