Welding

Seminole State College's Welding Program provides students with the advanced skills they need to succeed in the welding industry. Hands-on training, combined with laboratory and classroom experiences, give students an understanding of metal fabrication, welding processes and industry-standard equipment.

Welding requires high attention to detail and good manual control. If you are self-motivated and possess good manual dexterity, mechanical ability and hand-eye coordination, you can excel as a welder.

There will be no welding classes offered during the Fall 2009, Spring 2010 or Summer 2010 terms.

Attend class one evening per week. Learn MIG, TIG and STICK welding at your own pace, with the opportunity to become certified in each welding technique. Depending on your individual experience level, you may need to repeat this class as necessary to learn all three welding techniques.

You must be at least 18 years old to participate in welding classes. No TABE score is required, and you do not need to apply to the College for admission before enrolling.

Welding courses may be used toward two Continuing Workforce Education credits.

Course Fees
