Welding Technology

About

The mission of the Welding Technology Program is to prepare the student for entry into the labor market as a beginning welder. The course seeks to equip the student with the skills, attitudes, and work habits needed by those who successfully complete and enter into the labor market.

The Welding program will teach industry acceptable standards of welds for gas metal arc and oxy-acetylene welding as well as the proper set-up of gas tungsten arc welding equipment.  

This program has a number of job placement opportunities throughout Henry County and surrounding areas.  A great number of our class graduates continue their education through craft apprenticeship programs abroad.
