Simple 3 level competency system makes it easy for your clients to understand and manage
The Welder Competency Portal allows any client to see the competency level for all of your welders inducted at that site
Demonstrate the value of your welders and how they can deliver better quality and more effective repairs

It is more than “just a test” - it enables upskilling of welders, rather than simply classifying them.
Improve welder’s knowledge and skills - particularly with respect to how to achieve effective weld repairs of cracking.
Opportunity for practice and coaching to improve welding skills.

Unlike conventional welder qualifications, MWC provides a brokerage system so that when a welder changes employers, the new employer can purchase the residual value of the welder's competency record, and the prior employer is reimbursed for this residual value
The residual value is based on the minimum direct costs to obtain the MWC Competency Level, which diminishes in value over the 3 year life of the competency.
This means that employers do not have to pay the full costs for the competency assessment for new welders, and that they are not out of pocket when a welder leaves.
This system also makes it easier to hire new welders based on known and proven competency records, rather than having to do testing prior to hiring.
It also means that a welder is ready to start work on mine sites from the first day of employment, with no delay for completing the competency assessment.

Typical welder qualifications to standards such as ISO9606 require multiple test coupons in order to fully cover the required range of processes, materials, joint types, positions and consumables. This can be costly to do and requires multiple certificates to manage. Use the MWC to demonstrate welder competence via a single competency certificate.

Ensure that Welders have the knowledge and experience to safely use all of the welding related processes required for site repairs.
