INTENSIVE 2 DAY INTRODUCTORY WELDING IN MAG/MIG, MMA OR TIG
The course involves intensive practical training taking place over two days. There are options to extend the time frame to four or five days while at the centre. The course start dates are every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of each week.
Who Should Attend?
The Beginners welding is an introductory course that will teach you the foundation skills needed to start welding training if you have little or no experience and would like to start at the beginning.
Equally, it is an excellent programme to develop the skills to support a hobby or side project that you may have.
This course is for beginners only and so if you have experience in this process an intermediate or advanced programme may be more appropriate. If you are unsure, you can book a welding skills analysis or ring 0800 246 1483 for advice.
Who is it for?
The course is predominantly a practical course delivered in our workshop. It includes all the underpinning knowledge of welding as a profession, as well as the Health & Safety requirements.
Alongside the practical workshop sessions, there is an expectation that you do a small amount of reading and internet research to answer the assessment questions at the end of the course.
You will need to bring PPE, i.e. steel toe cap boots, flame-retardant overalls, hood and welding gloves. These can be purchased or hired from our shared facilities.
How am I assessed?
At the end of the programme, you will have produced two practical joints that pass visual inspection and take part in a short oral discussion with your tutor.
Entry requirements
