PROSPECTUS

CORNERSTONE ACADEMY (Private) Ltd

( CAPL ) aimsat providing education to enhance the employability of

graduates in specific fields of engineering and help them find

suitable jobs and open global career opportunities.

WELDING is one such field in which CAPL offers training for

international diplomas: International Welding Engineer

(IWE) and International Welding Technologist (IWT).These courses are designed by International Institute of

Welding and the diplomas are valid across the world in 55

countries.

Indian Institute of Welding-ANB (IIW-India-ANB) has

been authorised by International Institute of Welding (IIW)as its onlyAuthorised National Body (ANB) in India to

operate its international scheme and award InternationalDiplomas to welding personnel at various levels.

IIW-India-ANB in turn appoints Training institutes asApproved Training Bodies (ATBs) as per InternationalAuthorisation Board guideline No IAB-001r3-07 who will

actually impart the approved practical and theoreticaltraining programmes. Prospective candidates are required toundergo training in these ATBs in the course of their choice.

The ATB is to conduct approved courses designed to preparecandidates for examinations and qualifications of weldingpersonnel to International Standard as per IAB guideline.


3/12

Welding industries seeking to implement ISO 3834, whichenables them to bid more effectively for internationalwelding projects, would require their welding personnel topossess diplomas IWE or IWT.

Cornerstone Academy Private Ltd (CAPL) has been

provisionally approved as ATB to conduct classes for both

IWE and IWT courses. To teach the courses effectively CAPL

has put together a team of faculty members with vast

experience in teaching welding engineering and also in

Industry. Several regular faculty members who have

received their Ph.D degrees from IIT Madras and others

working in the welding industry for a couple of decades

across the world will teach the students. Apart from the

regular course, special topics will be covered by guest

lecturers drawn from leading educational and research

institutes such as IIT Madras, IGCAR and DRDL.

The course schedules are drawn in such a way that the

timings will suit welding professionals working in Industries

and as well as fresh graduates/ diploma holders.

ELIGIBILITY

B.E degree or equivalent in Mechanical/Metallurgical/Manufacturing/ Production Engineering with a firstclass for IWE.

Diploma in Mechanical/Metallurgical Engineering forIWT.

Preference will be given to employed professionals andpeople with industry experience.

THEORY CLASSES

Each student has to undergo 380 hours of theory classes

and 60 hours of practical classes as stipulated by IIWIndia-

ANB. Classes will be conducted as per the weekly schedulegiven below:

FRIDAY 6 - 9PM 3 HOURS

SATURDAY 9- 12 AM AND

1 4 PM

TOTAL 15 HOURS /WEEK

Minimum number of classes per week would be 15 andadditional classes may be conducted in case required

Total duration of the course will be a minimum of 6 months.

It may be extended in case necessary by another month to

train the students specially to face the final written test and

interview.

5/12

*Guest lectures on special topics will be delivered by

professors from IIT Madras and Scientists from IGCAR and

DRDL.

PRACTICAL CLASSES

Practical classes as per the syllabus (60 hours) will be held

at Om Sai Fabrication and Training Institute, Thiruvallur

which is one of the training institutes with modern

facilities, approved by IIW-India-ANB to conduct practical

training in the field of welding.

INTERNSHIP

Students without any industrial experience need to do a 3

months internship in an industry where welding is a major

fabrication process. This will be arranged by CAPL inindustries having a tie up with the academy. The students

can work as interns during day shifts (8AM to 2PM) for 5

days a week and attend the theory classes at the academy.

The concerned industry may or may not pay any stipend to

the students.

ASSIGNMENTS AND TESTS

The course demands hard work from the students which

includes weekly assignments and monthly tests. Library

facilities will be provided to students by CAPL at their

premises.

FEE PAYABLE

Tuition Fee : Rs. 70,000 (for IWE) & Rs 50,000 (for IWT)

Other Fee (includes amounts to be paid to IIW-India-ANB,Examination Fee, Practical training etc...): Rs. 15,000

Total Rs 85,000 (for IWE) & Rs 65,000 (for IWT)

JOB GUARANTEE

Upon completion of the course students will have to appear

for a written exam and an interview to be conducted by the

IIW-ANB. Diploma will be awarded to successful students.

CAPL guarantees jobs to all the candidates who obtain their

diplomas. Help will be extended to other candidates who

could not pass the exams in terms of further free training

and placement assistance.

HOSTEL AND MESS
