Same thing... I am not exactly sure myself. I was told they actually the same thing though with slight deviations in the college program. the difference in title comes from different countries. for instance i am from canada and the trade is millwright though while living in australia I found out that they refer to a person with the same skill set as a fitter and turner.

As far as I know , a free book no. Unless you are being tested thru a company. There are 4 levels of certification . Math a big part pythagram theorem ,learn it . Ask a local pipe fitter union local , or the closest nccer program provider . I myself am a level 4 pipe fitter and also a boilermaker both nccer certified . Trig, geometry, algebra , blueprints ,equipment......etc.
The ability to stick weld is critical to the Boilermaker. It is done on mild steel and stainless alike and in all positions. Though less overall time is spent doing so, the boilermaker must also be able to heli-arc. Again, this is done on mild steel and stainless in all positions. Some high-volume jobs will require the use of a "squirt gun". A boilermaker's welds are regularly tested (at least during their apprenticeship) to assure quality of work. Many jobs are X-Ray tested making the perfection of each and every weld a must.
yes
The fitter has a higher degree.
I need a full job description of a boilermaker,what his duties and responsibilities are.
The relationship is simple: In general, the more well you are, the fitter you are. The fitter you are, the more well you are.

can i view a copy of entire nccer boilermaker test?
yes. you can be a steam fitter, pipe fitter, bra fitter. fitter as in 'i want to get fitter' is correfct, but you can also use ' i want to get more fit'. both ways are correct.

The Boilermakers do not have one specific test that they take. A boilermaker must be an apprentice before becoming a journeyman boilermaker. The apprentices will take several tests during a four year time frame. To get a copy of these tests, contact your local hall.
no,he is called a combination fitter/welder.>.
