Welding Technology – Manufacturing (WELMO)
Award: Certificate of achievement
Pathway to associate degree: Welding Technology (WEAAS)
Program location: South Omaha Campus
This certificate of achievement provides students with basic welding skills needed to work in manufacturing industries. Students completing the program are exposed to print reading with special focus on interpreting welding symbols as well as skill training in plasma cutting; gas metal arc welding (MIG); gas tungsten arc welding (TIG) of steel, stainless steel, and aluminum; and flux-cored arc welding (FCAW).
