New courses start each month...

We are unique in being able to offer full welding courses. Welding compliments & makes-up part of the other key Trades - Gas, Plumbing (both pipe-work), to Oil & Gas off-shore.

If you wish to start a new welding career or are already qualified in another trade & wish to acquire a new skill / qualification, we offer full welding course training, at fully-equipped UK training centres & on-site work experience.

All the welding courses are tailored to suit every entry level, from complete beginner with no prior experience, up-to already part-qualified in another trade. The courses are open to all adults 18yrs+ from all backgrounds, with little or no prior experience - we can help you become fully qualified, with a full welding certificate.

Each course is split into 4 main areas:

  1. Practical (in a ‘local’ training centre)
  2. Theory (in a class-room)
  3. Home Study (online & to retake exam modules)
  4. On-Site (national practical safe working sites, to obtain your signed portfolio-of-work).

Each course takes you from beginner, to fully qualified (both Theory & Signed Practical Portfolio), providing a grounding in theory and technologies – covering qualifications from Level 1 MIG & TIG, Level 2 Awards and Level 3 Advanced Awards.

Each course gives a ‘hands-on’ practical knowledge - regardless of the level. A detailed ‘blended’ learning program, gives the knowledge, skills and experience required to work efficiently and safely as a qualified welder both in the UK & Overseas.

CSCS Cards arranged for each qualified student’s onsite safety.
