Detailed course curriculum for each of the above courses is given in Appendix-I . Both the theoretical and practical study is to be carried out at any ANB approved ATB for which the candidate will have to pay necessary charges directly to the ATB. The certification examinations both practical & theory (Intermediate and Final) will be conducted by the Board of Examiners (BOE) of the ANB for which the candidate will have to pay the necessary fees to the ANB as per the fee schedule attached in Appendix - II. Routes to Qualification : Two (2) different Routes are available for gaining the qualification required for IWE / IWT /IWS / IWP courses. Standard Route. Transition Route. (not available for IW) Standard Route : Route - 1: The candidate undergoes Parts - I, II and III of all the four Modules in an ATB. There is an Intermediate Examination after Part - I, a Practical Assessment after Part - II, and Final Examination conducted by the ANB after Part - III in 2 parts, viz. written examination and oral examination. Route - 2 : Provided the ANB is satisfied that the candidate has covered the course material for Part - I in his qualifying examinations attendance in Part - I can be exempted in case of IWE and IWT and the candidate may be allowed to appear directly at the Intermediate Examination.
Route - 3 (in case of IWS only) : This route is available to candidates who are already qualified as an International Welding Practitioner (IWP) or qualified as a Professional Worker (with diploma after examination) in metalworking professions and minimum 3 years experience in welding related activities, and a minimum age of 22 years. Students who enter from the Practitioner or professional worker (Route 3) must pass an entry test. The Content of this test covers the syllabus of IWS : Module - 0). Those who feel they lack the necessary basic technical education may take the preparatory IWS Module-0 course before the test. If a student fails the entry test he must take the full IWS Module-0 course before the next test. Eligibility : Each of the five courses (IWE/IWT/IWS/IWP/IW) has different eligibility criteria for the different Routes 1, 2 or 3, details of which are given in Appendix - IV. Application & Registration Standard Route On enquiry, candidates will be sent the Prospectus free of cost. In case the candidate is interested further, he/she may collect the relevant application form free of cost from the IIW - ANB office or this form may be sent to him by mail or the form can be downloaded from the IIW-Website (http://www.iiwindia.com).
