  •  

    Welding is a two-year AWS (American Welding Society) approved course of study that includes instruction in gas, stick, MIG, oxyacetylene and plasma cutting processes using mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum metals.  The first year of study focuses on the preparation of metal for welding and correct application of welding rods, welding techniques, safety requirements, layout/cutting techniques, Blueprint reading, and welding terminology. The second year emphasizes advanced project-based learning, additional skill development of Arc/MIG/TIG welding, and weld testing for the AWS Certified program. Students must pass 5 written tests and do a Performance weld test in the 3G position ( Vertical Up ). The test will be looked at by a CWI (Certified Welding Inspector) from the industry.
