CERTIFICATE OF COMPETENCY IN WELDING: FUNDAMENTALS
(630 CLOCK HOURS; CODE 1110–DAY/1111–NIGHT)
Division: Trades & Technology - Welding
Program Manager: R. Mark Woehl
The Certificate of Competency (CCT) in Welding: Fundamentals prepares students to work in industry using oxy-fuel
welding and cutting (OFW) (OFC) and shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) processes. This certificate provides an
introduction to the knowledge and skills required to work with modern industrial welding equipment using advanced
welding techniques including gas metal arc welding (GMAW), flux core arc welding (FCAW) and gas tungsten arc
welding (GTAW). An AAS in Welding as well as certificates in the following areas of specialization are also available:
Welding: Gas Metal/Flux Cored Arc Welding (GMAW)/(FCAW), Welding: Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) Ferrous,
Welding: Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) Non-Ferrous, Welding: Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) Plate, and
Welding: Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) Pipe.
Program Notes:
Students must earn a grade of C or better for all courses required within the program.
Program Prerequisites: None
WELDING: GAS TUNGSTEN ARC WELDING (GTAW) FERROUS AND
NON-FERROUS
CERTIFICATE OF COMPETENCY IN WELDING: GAS TUNGSTEN ARC WELDING (GTAW) FERROUS AND NON-
FERROUS
(630 CLOCK HOURS; CODE 1116–DAY/1117–NIGHT)
Division: Trades & Technology - Welding
Program Manager: R. Mark Woehl
The Certificate of Competency (CCT) in Welding: Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) prepares students for aerospace
industry code certification testing in the gas tungsten arc welding process in carbon steel and stainless-steel (ferrous
metals) and aluminum (non-ferrous). An AAS in Welding as well as certificates in the following areas of specialization
are also available: Welding: Gas Metal / Flux Cored Arc Welding (GMAW)/(FCAW), Welding: Shielded Metal Arc
welding (SMAW) Plate, Welding: Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) Pipe, and Welding: Shielded Metal Arc welding
