WELDING SKILL TRAINING PROGRAM – SINGLE PROCESS » |
|
| |
| |
|
|
The purpose of Welding Skill Training at the MEITI School of Welding is to teach the welding techniques and manipulative skills required for each major welding process. Welding technique is stressed above welding theory – as the students must be able to meet the welding performance demands of industry. Consequently, a minimum amount of course time (10% to 20%) is spent on book and classroom study. The remaining time is used for supervised welding
practice. |
