The CWB Group believes in a strong third-party certification program to help ensure public safety and recognize the excellence of Canadian skilled trades and inspection personnel in meeting world-class standards.

CWB staff are actively involved in driving best practices in certification programs and in the development and improvement of NDT certification standards both in Canada and around the world.
The CWB Group will continue to work in close partnership with the existing network of NDT training delivery organizations and examination delivery organizations to ensure the needs of all Canadians are met.
“The CWB Group is excited to take on this new role and looks forward to continuing to support the Canadian industry," said Craig Martin, vice-president of certification.
