Welding

The Welding program offers training in a wide variety of metal trades techniques.

Following completion of the two-year program, students will be prepared to weld and cut to specific codes and standards. In addition, students will learn to troubleshoot problematic tasks and work independently on project-based lab experiences. Hands-on technical training teaches students to join ferrous and non-ferrous metals by arc, gas, or resistance welding. All students are members of the American Welding Society.
