Course & Qualifications

Welder Assessment Course:

As welding is a highly skilled trade, the first step in assessing an individuals welding ability is to take a ½ day session assessment – this will asses the individuals skill level and what level of qualification the applicant wishes to obtain & the amount of time it will take to qualify.

After the assessment, the applicant will be expected to solely undertake practical welding exercises – any weak areas will be highlighted and addressed in the training programme.

This ½ day welding assessment course is aimed at both trades people who are new to welding & non-trades people who wish to obtain practical welding skills.

Upon completion, attendees will be skilled to perform basic welding, manage equipment to a required standard and have an understanding of safety in welding.

Course Contents:
  • Managing welding equipment safely and understanding procedures
  • Selecting the appropriate equipment for each welding role
  • Setting-up & stripping down welding machinery
  • Managing practical welding exercises
