Level 2 Certificate in Welding Skills
This TWO WEEKS intensive welding course is designed to allow candidates to learn, develop and practice the skills required for employment and/or career progression in the engineering sector. On this course you get to choose two of the three main welding processes you want to learn, so you can choose what career path you would like to go down.
This course requires you to have good knowledge of the welding processes you are interested in doing. If you can not weld to a good standard already, we recommend you complete our Basic Welding Course (for complete beginners, we recommend at least 5 days). If you enroll on this Level 2 course without being at a good standard, you may have to do extra days’ training at your own cost, which will be discussed with your tutor.
