Students are trained to produce quality gas metal arc (MIG) welds on structural carbon steel using proper techniques and procedures and to perform welds in multiple positions.  Students will also be trained to perform welds utilizing SMAW (stick welding) on multiple projects in the flat, horizontal, vertical and over-head positions. As the class progresses students will be introduced to several different electrodes as well as electrode sizes. With new electrodes/sizes students will gain the knowledge of how to adjust settings for each, as well as for what position. Students will have the opportunity to attempt AWS certification at the end of this course.  Students also receive training in 10-hour OSHA general industry, electric arc welding safety, and welding-related blueprint reading.   Students will be briefly introduced to FCAW during this course.  Students must wear leather boots to class.  All fees and materials are included.
