The Welding Program is designed to meet the expanding needs of the many occupations that utilize welding and fabrication. The welding department provides a balanced course of study including both hands-on learning experiences, technical information and general education courses. Students have the option to choose a course of study that best fits their needs: (1) preparation for a career in welding with welding certification through the Washington Association of Building Officials and a certificate from Everett Community College; (2) an Associate in Technical Arts degree for those who want to achieve additional welding related goals; (3) welding related skills and information for advancement in their current occupation. Each student will need to purchase about $200 worth of equipment during the training period. In addition to the Student Core Learning Outcomes, the Program Specific Outcomes include: • Build skills toward industry standards. • Build skills toward State and National welding certifications. • Work as an effective and dependable team member as well as independently. • Demonstrate safe work habits that reflect concern and care for self, others and the environment. • Develop the skills necessary to secure employment.
