Welcome,
Thank you for your interest in the Basic Principles of Welding Technology Course.
This course introduces the participants to welding technology principles with an emphasis on welding process principles, welding metallurgy, and an overview of selected industrial codes and standards. The structure and duration of this course experience is on an introductory theoretical level and therefore is not designed to build practical proficiency in any area.
