WELDING DIPLOMA
Welding processes are widely used in construction projects and in manufacturing facilities all over the world. These processes require precision, dexterity, and an understanding of metals. The program focuses on the major welding and cutting processes which includes Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), and Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW). The program also addresses safety, print reading, and math. The welding coursework helps in the development of quality welds in all positions on plate and pipe. Successful completion of the course gives the student the technical information required for entry level employment.
