The education and also training of welders and welding specialists play an important role in quality assurance in all areas of industry where welding technology is applied. Recently new very modern tool for the training of welders skill using virtual training environment (simulator) have appeared on the market. This sophisticated tool precisely simulate welding conditions at either MMAW (manual metal arc welding using covered electrodes) or MIG/MAG (metal inert/active gas) welding and provide an excellent condition for training of welders. The simulator provide clean and attractive environment which can mainly reduce the costs for education due to savings in energy, consumable and base materials. Of course special advantage is to provide clean rooms for training. The virtual welding simulator consists of welding workplace offering large screen display which offer to simulate welding exercises for trainee. Each workplace is multi-purpose and may be used to teach welding in variety of different positions (PA,PB,PC etc.). The work place also enables to save the record of individual welding parameters such as current and voltage which provide to the trainee the control off the welding process quality during or after training session. The application of this new tool for education of welders is completely new. EWF has already decided to implement this approach into harmonized guidelines as a possible option mainly for training of welders. Four institutes from Slovakia (VUZ-PI SR), Czech republic (CWS ANB), Slovenia (IzV) and Portugal (EWF) have joined in this activity in order to present this tool to the welding schools available in each individual country. Three Institutes were responsible for the implementation of the harmonized education system in each country and have the high level specialist available for teaching and also for presentation of new tool on the market. The objectives of this project was to present this new recently developed tool to the welding school in order to recognize the advantages and also possible savings by using virtual welding simulator. This tool can be very attractive mainly for young generation who are very familiar with new IT technologies. The simulator CS WAVE developed by French and APOLO Spanish company was rented in order to present this new tool to specialists from all four countries. Training sessions were organized for trainees who subsequently presented the equipment on welders courses and also seminars and workshops. The presentations, seminars and workshops were the opportunity to present new very progressive tool for education to the welding community, to teachers and students of vocational schools.
