The GHC Welding Program provides instruction in all common manual welding and cutting processes. Training includes welding with TIG, Stick, MIG, and flux cored wires. Steel, stainless steel, and aluminum are welded in all positions. Materials include pipe, tubing, sheet, plate, and structural shapes such as I-beam and channel. Cutting is done both manually and mechanized with plasma and oxy-fuel systems. Training is geared to provide the skill base, knowledge, and professional attitude required to eventually become a journey-level combination welder.

Data is unavailable for one of several reasons: In some cases, the institution has not provided the Workforce Board with data to independently evaluate program performance. We encourage all schools to provide this data on an annual basis. In other cases, the program joined Career Bridge recently and student data has not been reported yet. In other cases, the program is too small or too new to provide reliable results.
