  • EWF - EUROPEAN FEDERATION FOR WELDING JOINING AND CUTTING AISBL.

    EWF is an European non-profit association which principal aims are:

    1. to collaborate in the study and solution of welding-related problems encountered within its fields of competence;
    2. to encourage projects for cooperative research and contribute to the removal of technical barriers;
    3. to provide the exchange for scientific and technical information;
    4. to prepare harmonised rules for the education and training of personnel involved in welding, joining and related technologies;
    5. to act as the representative of the welding community in Europe.

    EWF, along with the relevant national welding organizations of 31 European countries, has made great efforts in updating and harmonization of training and education in the field of welding technology. It was a pioneer organisation in education and qualification, developing the first truly harmonized scheme embracing the European countries for the training of personnel at all levels, from crafts people to professional engineers.

    It started in the 1980’s an analysis of the existing levels of education in welding in the EU and EFTA countries and, upon the results, it was possible to define common harmonised levels of education, training and qualification.

    Aware of the importance of the mobility of labour within Europe, a lot of work has been put on the harmonisation of a standard examination system, to ensure that welding personnel trained in the EWF system is examined in a uniform way, allowing the implementation of the developed Certification system where the recognition of personnel skills is able according to the same minimum standard.
