ADVM D0010 - Welding
Course Description
The purpose of this program is to prepare students for employment as combination welders.
The program guides the student from an introduction to welding, through critical safety information, to specific details regarding welding and cutting processes. Relevant shop math, welding metallurgy, blueprint reading is provided in a fashion that provides concept overviews and hands-on experience for technical skills that can result in immediate employment. Core skills (math, blueprint reading) are embedded in the overall training so that students experience the practical application, opposed to a “stand alone” skills enhancement course. In this way, students understand the relevancy of applicable math and its significance in welding.
