Welding is a 1080 hour program. Students learn techniques for various pieces of welding equipment and the safety precautions that relate to them. They also learn the most common types of welding such as oxygen acetylene, shielded metal arc weld (stick), gas metal arc (mig), steel & aluminum, gas tungsten arc (tig), flux cored arc weld, carbon arc gouge, blueprint reading, and welding symbol.
