At TWI Thailand, we are committed to helping professionals gain internationally recognised qualifications that enhance both their confidence and capability. Ms. Kusuma Uppasuk’s journey through the SEASEP Visual Welding Inspector 3.0 course beautifully shows the impact of quality training.
Choosing the Right Path through SEASEP
Ms. Uppasuk was aware of the SEASEP programme thanks to her company’s experience with it — particularly in providing financial support for learning and supporting courses like IOSH Working Safely. When presented with the opportunity to take the Visual Welding Inspector 3.0 course, she saw it as a chance to build knowledge and skills relevant to her role.
“I was sent by my company to join this course because I wanted, first, to deepen my understanding before performing visual inspections and submitting work in the Production department.”
Building Professional Confidence Through Knowledge
Before training, Ms. Uppasuk’s skill in inspecting welds visually was based mostly on practical exposure rather than structured learning. The Visual Welding Inspector 3.0 course gave her clarity on inspection criteria, defects recognition, and acceptance standards areas where she had previously relied on experience and on-the-job learning.
“After completing the course, I feel confident in performing visual inspections accurately. The structured training corrected misunderstandings I had and strengthened my daily work.”
Certification That Translates Into Trust
Obtaining her certification has opened new doors for Ms. Uppasuk. Her professional credibility has increased, both within her company and with clients. This recognition has not only affirmed her skills but also improved her standing in the eyes of supervisors and external stakeholders.
“Being certified has brought me not just recognition but also a salary increase. It’s reassuring to know that my work and efforts are trusted by my company and clients alike.”
Elevating Safety at Work
Knowledge from the course hasn’t just improved technical inspection skills—it’s reshaped Ms. Uppasuk’s view on workplace safety. She now approaches every task with a more systematic mindset, identifying risks in advance, and sharing safety practices with colleagues to help build a safer working environment for all.
Looking Ahead
Ms. Uppasuk has already set her sights on further professional growth. Her next goal is to pursue CSWIP Ultrasonic Testing, a course that aligns closely with her current role. She hopes this step will deepen her technical expertise and further solidify the trust she enjoys from both clients and her team.
“My aim is to continue learning, reach higher standards of certification, and grow as a certified professional recognised by clients and peers.”
TWI Thailand is proud to support driven professionals like Ms. Uppasuk through programmes such as SEASEP. Together, we help individuals upskill, promote safer workplaces, and advance confidently in their careers.
