Program Details
Welding: Gas Metal Arc Welding
New Program
Welding Technology (095650)
08/17/20
The Welding: Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) Certificate of Achievement prepares students for work in areas of ship building, bridges and building construction, pipeline construction, refrigeration, missile and aircraft construction, automobile and related industries where metal must be joined together. Developments in metallurgy have created many types of metals which require new techniques to join and fasten.
Skilled welders are in demand in Sonoma County. Possible job titles include: Welding Helper or Apprentice, Production Helpers, Welder,Welders and Cutters, Assembler/Production worker.
· Number of sections of core courses to be offered annually:14
· Headcount of student annual enrollment in core courses: 300
· Estimated completers at the end of the second year: 80
· Estimated completers at the end of the fifth year: 200
Program Proposal Attributes
- Certificate of Achievement: 8 to fewer than 16 semester (or 12 to fewer than 24 quarter) units (B)
