Terms of Use

By using Welding Inspector Prep you agree to these terms. They are deliberately short, because this is a free informational site with no accounts and nothing to buy.

What this site is

Welding Inspector Prep provides free, independent study tools and reference material for people considering the AWS Certified Welding Inspector certification. It is operated by Urban Algorithm LLC. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or administered by the American Welding Society or any government agency. We do not administer the exam and we do not certify anyone.

Not professional or certification advice

The content and tools here are for general information only. Fees, exam structure, endorsement scope, and recertification rules change, and eligibility depends on your specific situation. Always confirm the current requirements and fees directly with the American Welding Society and your Authorized Training Facility before you make a decision or a payment. Nothing here creates a professional relationship or guarantees any exam outcome.

Cost figures are dated estimates, not quotes

Every fee we show carries the date it was last checked against the official source. Prices change, provider-set and Authorized-Training-Facility fees vary, and the calculator produces an estimate for planning, not an official quote or an offer. The authoritative price is always the current American Welding Society price list.

Tools are free and provided as is

The calculators and practice tools are free, run in your browser, and are provided as is, without warranties of any kind. We work to keep them accurate but do not warrant that every figure or calculation is error-free. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Urban Algorithm LLC is not liable for any loss arising from your use of the site.

Affiliate links

Some outbound links may be affiliate links, disclosed where they appear, and we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. We only link resources we believe are genuinely useful, and an affiliate relationship never changes the neutral guidance in our tools or content.

Intellectual property

The original text, tools, and data compilations on this site are the property of Urban Algorithm LLC. Fees, exam structure, and code editions are facts and are published as original dated compilation; we do not reproduce copyrighted code text or any third party's copyrighted material.

Changes

We may update these terms; the effective date above will change when we do. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms.
