Part-Time Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) / Accredited Testing Facility (ATF) Assistant

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We have info: Hourly Rate: $36.56 (Pay). Position is on-campus, part-time, up to 19-hours per week appointment based in Champaign, Illinois (Schedule). So we have Pay and Schedule specifics. Also we have location maybe part of About the role? Could include location in About the role paragraph. We have description of role: Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) serves as a technical specialist who conducts testing, performs inspections, and documents and certifies results for designated AWS certification exams. The position follows all applicable AWS requirements and Parkland College procedures when administering and certifying exams. It also provides operational support to the Welding Faculty Program Director to help maintain testing equipment and the Accredited Testing Facility (ATF). This is a non-instructional position. It does not teach, assess credit coursework, assign grades, or make academic decisions. We have Essential Job Functions with bullet-like paragraphs: Test Administration and Certification, Visual Inspection, Chain of Custody, Sample Preparation and Testing, Documentation and Exam Compliance, Safety Enforcement, Operational Support, Role Boundaries, etc. Those are duties/responsibilities. We have Minimum Requirements: Current AWS CWI credential, proficiency in interpreting welding codes (AWS D1.1 Structural Steel required), ability to read and interpret complex blueprints and WPS, ability to stand for extended periods (up to 4-6 hours) while proctoring tests, ability to lift and move metal plates, pipes, and testing fixtures weighing up to 50 lbs, visual acuity sufficient to perform detailed visual inspections of welds (corrected vision acceptable), ability to work in environment with exposure to welding fumes, UV radiation, and noise (PPE provided), commitment to ethical testing standards and ability to withhold certification when a weld does not meet applicable AWS requirements, attention to detail and accuracy in measuring, inspecting, certifying, and documenting results, clear verbal and written communication skills to explain certification test results to examinees and report findings to the Welding Faculty Program Director, prospective new hires will successfully complete a post offer, pre-employment criminal background check with fingerprinting, background check review includes, but not limited to, exclusionary offenses per the Illinois School Code and Title IV of the Higher Education Act. In an effort to comply with SURS return-to-work restrictions for employers (40 ILCS 5/15-139.5), candidates for employment at Parkland College must either not be a SURS annuitant or must be willing to suspend his/her SURS annuity upon employment. This applies to all SURS annuitants except those receiving their annuity under either the Self-Managed Plan (SMP) or by lump sum payment. We also have application instructions, but we must remove them. Also EEO, etc. Thus we need sections: About the role (maybe a paragraph summarizing role), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (maybe combine Minimum Requirements and Qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (maybe communication skills etc). But we need to avoid thin sections. We can combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section? The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We can include only those that have real content. We have Pay (Hourly Rate). We have Schedule (up to 19 hours per week). We have Benefits? Not mentioned. So we should not create Benefits section. We have About the role: we can write a paragraph describing the position. Responsibilities: list of duties (Essential Job Functions). Requirements: list of minimum requirements (credentials, abilities). Qualifications: maybe we could treat as same as Requirements? But we need to avoid duplication. Perhaps we can have Requirements covering credentials and abilities, and Skills covering communication, attention to detail, etc. But we need to ensure we don't create thin sections. Let's see: we have many specific requirements: credential, code proficiency, blueprint reading, standing, lifting, visual acuity, work environment, ethical standards, attention to detail, communication skills, background check, SURS annuity condition. Those could be split into Requirements (credentials, abilities) and Skills (communication, attention to detail, ethical standards). However the instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section called Requirements (or Qualifications). But we have both headings allowed; we could choose to include Requirements and maybe Skills as separate if they have enough content. Let's see content for Skills: clear verbal and written communication skills, attention to detail and accuracy, commitment to ethical testing standards. That's maybe enough for a Skills section. Requirements: credential, code proficiency, blueprint reading, standing, lifting, visual acuity, work environment, background check, SURS condition. That's also substantive. Thus we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Certified Welding Inspector". Use

  for each section heading. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract details. About the role: combine description: The Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) serves as a technical specialist who conducts testing, performs inspections, and documents and certifies results for designated American Welding Society (AWS) certification exams. The position follows all applicable AWS requirements and Parkland College procedures when administering and certifying exams. It also provides operational support to the Welding Faculty Program Director to help maintain testing equipment and the Accredited Testing Facility (ATF). This is a non-instructional position. It does not teach, assess credit coursework, assign grades, or make academic decisions. Location: Champaign, Illinois. Part-time, up to 19 hours per week, on-campus. We could include location and schedule in About the role or separate Schedule section. Since we have Schedule section, we can put schedule details there. Location maybe in About the role. Responsibilities: list each essential job function as

  . Let's extract them: - Sets up, administers, and certifies designated welder qualification exams in strict accordance with applicable AWS codes, standards, and testing requirements. This work is limited to AWS certification testing and is separate from the assessment of credit courses. - Performs formal visual inspections (VT) of fit-ups, root passes, completed weldments, and test samples submitted by examinees for AWS certification testing. These inspections are not used to assign course grades. - Enforces strict chain-of-custody protocols for test materials; marks and tracks test coupons from initial distribution through final destruction/analysis. - Operates testing equipment to prepare specimens, including cutting, grinding, and machining, and performs mechanical testing, including guided bend tests, fillet break tests, and macro-etching, in coordination with the Welding Faculty Program Director. - Completes technical inspection reports, Welder Performance Qualification Records (WPQR), and other required testing records accurately. Follows all applicable AWS requirements when conducting, inspecting, documenting, and certifying designated exams. - Monitors the welding lab during testing sessions to ensure all participants adhere to OSHA safety standards and Parkland College laboratory safety protocols. - As needed and as time permits, assists the Welding Faculty Program Director with maintaining and calibrating inspection tools, including gauges, micrometers, and calipers; maintaining testing equipment; and completing other operational tasks that support the testing facility and its standards. - This position does not teach, provide course instruction, assess student work for academic credit, assign grades, or make academic decisions. (Role Boundaries) - Performs other related operational support duties as assigned by the Welding Faculty Program Director, consistent with the non-instructional scope of the position. We could combine role boundaries and other duties as separate items. Requirements: list: - Current AWS Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) credential in good standing. - Proficiency in interpreting welding codes (AWS D1.1 Structural Steel is required). - Ability to read and interpret complex blueprints and Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS). - Ability to stand for extended periods (up to 4-6 hours) while proctoring tests. - Ability to lift and move metal plates, pipes, and testing fixtures weighing up to 50 lbs. - Visual acuity sufficient to perform detailed visual inspections of welds (corrected vision is acceptable). - Ability to work in an environment with exposure to welding fumes, UV radiation, and noise (PPE provided). - Commitment to ethical testing standards and the ability to withhold certification when a weld does not meet applicable AWS requirements. - Attention to detail and accuracy in measuring, inspecting, certifying, and documenting results. - Clear verbal and written communication skills to explain certification test results to examinees and report findings to the Welding Faculty Program Director. - Prospective new hires will successfully complete a post offer, pre-employment criminal background check with fingerprinting. The background check review includes, but is not limited to, exclusionary offenses per the Illinois School Code and Title IV of the Higher Education Act. - In an effort to comply with SURS return-to-work restrictions for employers (40 ILCS 5/15-139.5), candidates for employment at Parkland College must either not be a SURS annuitant or must be willing to suspend his/her SURS annuity upon employment. This applies to all SURS annuitants except those receiving their annuity under either the Self-Managed Plan (SMP) or by lump sum payment. Skills: maybe we can pull out communication skills, attention to detail, ethical standards. But those are already in Requirements. To avoid duplication, maybe we combine Requirements and Skills into one section called Requirements (or Qualifications). However the instruction says we can use those headings; we need to avoid thin sections. If we split, Skills may be thin (only communication, attention to detail, ethical standards). But we could still include it as it's substantive enough? It's three bullet points. Might be okay. But we risk duplication if we also list them in Requirements. Better to not duplicate. So we could put communication skills, attention to detail, ethical standards under Skills, and the rest under Requirements (credentials, physical abilities, background check, etc). That avoids duplication. Thus: Requirements section: credential, code proficiency, blueprint reading, standing, lifting, visual acuity, work environment, background check, SURS condition. Skills section: commitment to ethical testing standards and ability to withhold certification when weld does not meet AWS requirements, attention to detail and accuracy in measuring, inspecting, certifying, documenting results, clear verbal and written communication skills to explain certification test results to examinees and report findings to the Welding Faculty Program Director. Pay section: Hourly Rate: $36.56. Schedule section: This position is an on-campus, part-time, up-to 19-hours per week appointment based in Champaign, Illinois. (We could mention location here or in About the role; but we already have location maybe in About the role.
