Is it for me?
The level 1 course is aimed at first time welders, if you want to develop welding skills and gain a qualification through hands on tuition then this course is for you.
The level 2 course further develops your welding skills through a wider range of practical work
What will I study?
At level 1 you will be studying Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding.
The process involves joining two pieces of metal together using a filler wire (electrode) which is heated by electricity.
If you already hold a MIG certificate then we can offer Manual Metal Arc Welding (MMA) and Tungsten Inert Gas welding (TIG).
If you already hold a level 1 weld certificate or have sufficient practical experience, you can study at level 2. You will study the same welding methods of MIG, MMA, or TIG, but to a wider application, and higher skill level.
