How much are the CSWIP 3.1 course fees?

Contact our admissions team to confirm the duration and dates for your selected batch and learning format. Institute preparation, approved training and the certification examination may have separate schedules.
Can I join if I am a fresher or diploma holder?
You can ask our team about a suitable learning pathway. An academic qualification alone does not satisfy the CSWIP 3.1 examination experience requirements. Your inspection responsibilities and documented experience must be reviewed against the current scheme.

No. CSWIP certification is administered by TWI Certification Ltd and is subject to its eligibility, training, examination and other scheme requirements. Confirm the approved training provider and examination arrangements before booking.
Are examination charges included in the course fees?
Inclusions must be confirmed in your written quotation. Ask the team to identify training, examination, certification, taxes and any resit charges separately so you can plan the total cost.
