Welding

Welders fuse together giant sheets of metal and tiny metal closures using sheer heat and force. There are several different methods of welding including gas-metal arc welding, gas-tungsten arc welding, shielding-metal arc welding, oxyfuel gas welding, plasma cutting, resistance welding and submerged arc welding, just to name a few. Typical job activities of welders include the installation and repair of metal materials whether it be a bridge, a locker, a fence, a gate, furniture or even piping.

Classes in welding may include welding principles, welding inspection, blueprint reading, and quality control. Welding courses will school you in all the essentials from quality control to construction issues to the latest welding techniques. The top ten percent of welders earn more than $25 an hour.
