Program Overview

The Welding program is a full-time certificate course. This program provides students the opportunity to be trained in (4) major welding fields: ARC, MIG, TIG, and Flux Core by combining hands-on lab work with classroom training. The students in this program learn structural and pipe welding. Replicating actual job site conditions, instructors lead students through coursework that will allow them to successfully complete American Welding Society certifications in SMAW (shield metal arc welding), GMAW (gas metal arc welding), GTAW (gas tungsten arc welding), and FCAW (flux-cored arc welding).
