DVS Welder Training
WEGENER Welding, LLC is planning to proceed as usual with hosting their annual DVS Certified Welder Training/ Certification School this fall, conducted by SKZ. While the continuously evolving disruptions caused by COVID-19 may impact their ability to host this course, they are planning at this time to proceed forward with these popular certification courses.

Additionally, for the first time ever they are adding heated tool pipe fusion, heated tool socket fusion, and electrofusion welding to the course agenda. Certification testing for these will also be optionally available. The recertification course dates are September 28-29, and Sep¬tember 30-October 1. The full one-week Training & Certification courses are being held October 4-8, 11-15, and 18-22.

These courses provide a unique opportunity to gain in-depth knowledge on thermoplastic hot gas hand and hot gas extrusion welding and offer optional certification according to DVS (German Welding Society). This certification finds acceptance worldwide as well evidenced by the recurring participation of international students. The one-week courses are designed so they are of benefit for anybody connected to the industry, whether it is relative newcomers to the thermoplastic welding field, experienced shop personnel, supervisors, engineers or company managers and/or owners. The trainer is a certified welding instructor from SKZ (Southern German Technical Institute) and he is assisted by Leah Dockter of Wegener Welding. The courses are purposely kept small to be able to give each student maximum time and attention.
