Welding provides opportunities for students to gain skills in blueprint reading, design, layout, and fabrication of specific projects large and small. Throughout the program, students develop skills in different welds such as oxy-acetylene, shield metal arc, MIG, and plasma arc cutting. Students also receive instruction on key construction welding techniques to include pipe welding, and TIG welding with a variety of steels and steel alloys. Welding students have the opportunity to meet and work with employers in the second year of the welding program. This program has a registered apprenticeship with John Deere where students get paid, earn credit and credentials, and could gain employment at John Deere.
