Level 1 Welding - SMAW Structural Sheet Steel
This course is intended for the beginning student who wants to progress to an advanced level of welding processes leading toward certification. This course offers specialized training and instruction, aimed at developing those skills necessary to take and pass the performance test portion as required by the American Welding Society and the City of Los Angeles Department of Building & Safety (LADBS) Certified Welder Examination. Due to this course being highly dependent on the individual progress of the student, it will primarily emphasize specific skills in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), as it applies to Certification in Structural Sheet Steel. The course will also focus on safety, welding codes, test preparation, procedures, and destructive testing. Special emphasis will be placed on developing proficiency in order to successfully pass the AWS/LADBS performance exam. *
The short term goal of this course is to prepare the student for advancement to the Level 2 Welding Workshop, and leading to further advancement through to Welder Certification.
