Professional Membership

Membership of The Welding Institute

Aspirations towards rewarding careers in the welding and joining industry

Membership of The Welding Institute as either a Professional Member or an Associate provides a clear demonstration of your commitment to excellence by affiliating yourself with the leading international membership body for welding & joining personnel.

Associate Membership is open for everyone who has an active interest in welding and materials joining. Associate Membership provides a springboard to those in the engineering community, particularly those in joining and welding engineering, who aspire to professional membership and Engineering Council registration.

Professional Membership in addition gives you industrial recognition by your peers and most importantly, personal and professional prestige.

Recognition throughout your career takes a number of distinct steps.  Each of these steps marks a demonstration of competence.  Whether you are an Associate, Graduate, Member, Senior Member or Fellow - these are rungs on the professional ladder to acceptance of ability.  They also constitute the route to professional registration with the UK body of chartered institutions - the Engineering Council.
