The CG program is designed to prepare students for gainful employment in the welding field. Graduates also have the opportunity for transfer to an Associate’s Degree program in Welding Technology.

Students are trained in OAW (Oxy Acetylene Welding), SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding), (Gas Metal Arc Welding), FCAW (Flux Cored Arc Welding) and GTAW (Gas Tungsten Arc Welding). Plasma arc cutting, air carbon arc cutting, and print reading are covered. A major portion of the lab time is devoted to developing skills in all structural and pipe welding positions. In addition, students will also learn to use and operate common welding equipment and tools in a safe and efficient manner.

The one-year CG program provides nine months of concentrated training with approximately 20 hours per week in the welding lab, the majority of which will be devoted to hands-on training. The student’s skills needed to perform welds that comply with A.W.S. standards will also be developed.
