| This is a completely revised version of our former
instructor course. You told us you would prefer to have a one week course rather than
two weeks. We have made every attempt to develop a course that will meet the needs of
Vocational and Technical teachers. The course objective is still to increase each
instructor's knowledge of welding and welding related subjects. The time will be spent in
both classroom theory and "hands-on" practice for the major arc welding
processes. |

on the single most used method of welding inspection —
what we can see with the naked eye. Anyone involved
with arc welding inspection, quality control, engineering

"after" welding. During this course you will
spend time in the classroom and then in a
"hands-on" lab session for actual practice. |
