- Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) flat, horizontal and vertical to CWB standards
- Pending completion of above, students may also train on Flux-cored Arc Welding (FCAW) and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) machines.
- Comprehensive blueprint reading course (Text: Blueprint Reading for Welders)
- Welding Theory
- Technical math upgrading and resume development/job search assistance.
- CWB Certification tests in GMAW flat, SMAW flat, horizontal and vertical are included.
B) PIPE WELDING
20 Weeks
Outline:
Practical hands-on training. Students complete a blueprint reading component as an independent study. Three key areas of study are covered:
- Introduction to SMAW welding in all positions
- GTAW & SMAW: Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) open root passes, E7018 fill and caps
- SMAW: E6010/E6011 open root passes, E7018 fill and caps
- Two Pipe Welding Tests included
- Technical math upgrading and resume development/job search assistance available.
C) PROFESSIONAL PIPE PLUS
26 Weeks
Outline:
This program focuses on the development of pipe welding skills and is designed for individual’s without previous welding experience. In addition to the following pipe welding skills, a unit on GMAW on steel and GTAW on aluminum will also be provided. Pipe welding skills include:
