Students will apply current evidence-based practices to promote, maintain, and restore health with diverse adult patients, integrating concepts of disease processes, physiological changes, behavioral health, and nutritional needs. Clinical and theory content focus on communication, professionalism, and the development of therapeutic relationships, with an emphasis on quality and safety, legal and ethical considerations, and collaboration with the healthcare team. Self-assessment and self-awareness are encouraged to support personal growth and strengthen therapeutic communication skills. Learning experiences occur in the classroom, laboratory, inpatient, and outpatient clinical settings. Morning, afternoon, evening, and/or weekend clinical hours may be required.

This course builds on the principles introduced in MIG I, with an emphasis on advanced weld joint preparation, out-of-position welding, and increased weld quality and consistency. Students will further develop their skills in equipment setup, parameter adjustment, and troubleshooting, while applying proper safety practices and equipment maintenance. Instruction includes more complex welding test positions and industry-based projects that reflect real-world conditions. Upon completion, students will be better prepared for higher-level welding tasks and increased employment opportunities in the welding industry. Curriculum for this course is based on and aligned with American Welding Society standards. (PLO 1, 2, 3, 4) Demonstrate proper GMAW/FCAW welding techniques in all positions on both steel & aluminum.
