Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) is an advanced non-destructive examination technique that uses ultrasonic probes capable of pulsing elements individually at different time intervals. Compared with conventional ultrasonics, PAUT provides higher probability of detection, it is faster, more reliable, and it provides 2D or 3D images and a permanent record of the inspection through the data recorded.
The course duration is 15 days including exam: 10 days phased array theory and data acquisition practical, 3 days analysis practical, 2 days exam.
Candidates with previous training in Phased Array UT may be eligible for a reduction of the total training hours required for PCN and CSWIP certification. Please contact Customer Services for further information. You are to provide evidence of the training received: a certificate of attendance and a copy of the training syllabus BOTH authenticated by a senior responsible person in the candidates employing organisation or a major client. This shall be passed to the relevant TWI Training Centre for approval at least two weeks prior to the scheduled course start date.
This course leads to an internationally recognised CSWIP or PCN certification, both fully compliant with BS EN ISO 9712 certification schemes.
Please note:
All candidates attending a PCN examination (initial, retest or renewal) must provide photo ID (e.g driving licence number, passport number, PCN ID card) on the day of sitting the examination. Failure to do so will result in the candidate being turned away.
PCN in India and South East Asia
We would like to bring to your notice that TWI India and TWI South East Asia have decided to withdraw ATO of BINDT. Hence, they will not be in a position to undertake any PCN courses or exams.
CSWIP certification is also available for candidates holding ASNT UT Welds. It will be considered on an individual basis and evidence of training and experience presented to the training centre on application. Non-BS EN ISO 9712 certificate holders will be required to sit the CSWIP UT Welds Level 2 General Paper.
Blended learning option: If a candidate is unable to attend the full 15 days in the classroom, then consider our blended learning option where theory and concepts can be studied as eLearning.

From the 1st of April 2022, the CSWIP-WI-6-92 Welding Inspector scheme document will be changed to the 16th Edition. This change will alter the CSWIP - Visual Welding Inspector (3.0) and the CSWIP - Welding Inspector (3.1) programme syllabus and examination structure. These positive changes are tailor-made to the industry's relevance, ensuring TWI training courses remain second to none in its field of expertise.
There are minor amendments to the practical element and a greater detailed theoretical approach of the training and examination for an enhanced training experience. Besides the examination, the training course content is also updated to bring it in line with the above changes.
Candidates looking to undertake a retest(s) on a previously failed part(s) have twelve months from the initial examination date to do so according to the old scheme and initial examinations from the 01st of April will be on the new scheme. Ten-year renewal examination participants are highly advised to attend a minimum of one-day refresher training with an authorized TWI lecturer before undertaking their examination(s).
All TWI regional offices have full-time invigilators on standby. This means upon completion of a course, the examination can be conducted at ease on the same week. However, several locations have embraced remote invigilation services (RIS), which entails the examinations to be conducted at a later date.
Candidates trained on the old format from now until the end of March 2022 and do not sit their exam before the document change (1st of April 2022) will be expected to undertake the new examination format. Therefore, please plan your training schedule wisely and do not hesitate to contact a TWI near you for more details.
For more information and inquiries on the newly enhanced training format and the scheme requirements for the Certification of Visual Welding Inspectors, Welding Inspectors, and Senior Welding Inspectors (fusion welding) per the requirements of BS EN ISO 17637, please check out the scheme document here and get in touch with us at inq...@twisea.com.
