documentation. NDT technicians are not specifically addressed in this
list.
Question 5: What is the minimum number of years of welding-related
experience required for a Welding Supervisor under CSA W47.1?
A) Three years
B) Five years
C) Seven years
D) Ten years
Rationale: Each Welding Supervisor must have a minimum of five years
of welding-related experience and complete written examinations on
welding symbols, weld faults, quality control, and inspection methods.
Question 6: On which subjects must a Welding Supervisor complete
written examinations for qualification under CSA W47.1?
A) Welding metallurgy only
B) Welding symbols, weld faults, quality control, and inspection
