I am not a student but I am a welder by profession. My son is learning to weld and now he wishes to join AWS CWB program. I am a common man and I am not at all aware of the scope of this course. If he wishes to join this course I have no objection to that. When I discussed this with my friends they all supported his ambition and suggested to join on welding schools that provide AWS certification. Does this certification have that much of value in welding jobs? Is this a wise decision of joining such schools for this course?
