DVD SKILL TRAINING COURSES (GMAWB)
Skill Workbooks are also available: click here to Order Skill Workbooks

Overview

This new, state-of-the-art, 24-module GMAWB curriculum (available on 3 DVD's) is based on the AWS SENSE entry-level welder requirements as specified in QC10 and EG2.0. Modular design gives you the flexibility to customize implementation to the needs of your unique setting. 

Each skill module includes a demonstration of the weld that students are expected to perform, featuring dramatic, close-up shots of the arc and puddle. Theory modules contain all the essential information associated with the gas metal arc welding process, and feature attractive animated graphics to illustrate key concepts. Male and female narrators alternate throughout, to maintain student interest and highlight key points.

NOTE: DVDs feature a language option for English and Spanish.

Instructor Guide

The Instructor Guide includes everything you need to implement the GMAWB curriculum, including a list of base and filler metals required for each student, to help you plan your budget.  It provides all the information necessary to complete your lesson plans in an easy-to-follow 5-column format with performance objectives, suggested practice times, required materials and machine settings, evaluation methodologies, and a complete script of what to do and say, featuring suggestions for implementing each topic and reinforcing key points.

Student Workbook

The student workbook (EW369 GMAWB) is divided into the same topics as the DVD.  The workbook provides an easy-to-follow “recipe” format for recreating welds demonstrated on DVD.  The pictures in the workbook are taken directly from the DVD to facilitate skill transfer.  The workbook also provides a summary of essential theory covered in the course.

Tests & Answer Keys

There are 2 written tests included with the GMAWB curriculum.  Answer keys are provided in the Instructor Guide, along with a suggested schedule for implementing test.
