How it works

Prep built around how the CWI exam really works

The CWI exam isn't only a vocabulary test. It hands you weld replicas, gauges and a code, and asks you to make the call an inspector makes. We built CWIQuizBank around that.

How we write questions

We don't use leaked or "recalled" exam questions. Each question is written from AWS's published content areas for Parts A, B and C, the free Book of Specifications and the D1.1 code, then checked against the clause or calculation it tests. The working is shown in the explanation, so you can check our work.

How we keep it current

AWS updates its price list and exam references from time to time. We review each exam page against AWS's current CWI page, Examination User Guide and Exam References and Editions Guide and show when it was last checked (currently November 2026).

How we fit with your code book

The Book of Specifications and your code book are the references for Parts B and C, and you still need them. CWIQuizBank adds what most candidates say they're missing: lots of exam-style practice, timed mock exams, spaced-repetition flashcards, a mistakes bank and a Readiness Score that tells you when you're ready.
