Welding

This class is designed to give the student entry-level skills in welding and cutting. The intent is to prepare students to do basic GMAW and SMAW welding jobs that some industries and small businesses require. This class can also be useful to the small farmer or business owner who has many do-it-yourself projects. Different types of welding are emphasized. The class includes a basic introduction to oxy-fuel cutting, welding safety, voltage regulation and setting wire feed speeds as well as a lot of “hands-on” practice. Students will learn to discuss and apply proper safety procedures for welding, practice safety procedures for both GMAW and SMAW welding operations as well as oxy-fuel cutting operations.
