If welding supervisors did not have the
10、appropriate knowledge and skill levels, how then could the welders being supervised achieve improved quality and productivity levels? To this end, those dedicated men became the catalyst that advanced the Certified Welding Supervisor Program to where it is today. Most likely, this manual would not h
11、ave become a reality when it did without their support, their initial efforts as a Beta Test Site, and their feedback during program development. For that reason, this manual is dedicated to Ron Pierce of Welding Engineering Services Company and Tom Bender, Jackie Morris, and Lavon Mills of Bender S
