WELDER CORPS UNIT V: GTAW
In this session (5 of 7 in the Welder Corps program), learn hands-on gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW aka TIG) skills from an American Welding Society Board Member and Counselor (https://www.aws.org/About/Awards/Counselor-And-Fellow/).
Learn welding theory through brief classroom discussions and practical scenarios. Ample practice time is provided, as well as a fun (yet educational) take-home project. In addition, at-home study involving nationally recognized modules from the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) is expected and will allow participants to earn industry credentials that never expire.
