We’re enrolling students in our next Fundamentals of Welding and any Intermediate Welding course, scheduled for Thursday, June 20, 2025, on our campus in Scranton. Space is very limited.

Students will learn the basics of the major welding processes. After fundamentals, students can enroll in an intermediate class in either Shielded Metal Arc Welding (Stick), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (TIG), or Gas Metal Arc Welding (MIG). The Intermediate Stick Welding portion of the class provides specific instruction in the Shielded Metal Arc (SMAW) welding process.  Students learn how to perform fillet and groove welds on carbon steel using E6010 and E7018 electrodes in all positions.  Student practice is geared toward structural welding code vertical and overhead tests.  Passing these tests provides an all-position, limited thickness, AWS D1.1 welder certification.
