Build Stronger Weld Inspection Skills

Help Grades 9–12 CTE students identify welding defects, analyze evidence, evaluate likely causes, and recommend appropriate corrective actions using realistic quality-control scenarios.

Skills Covered

• Welding defect identification
• Observation vs. inference
• Root-cause analysis
• Corrective-action reasoning
• Quality-control prioritization
• Technical communication

Includes

• Visual anchor charts and defect references
• Scaffolded weld inspection worksheets
• Case-based investigations
• Professional reporting activities
