WELDING SKILLS - LEVEL 2 AWARD (MIG, TIG, MMA)

Duration: 3 hours per week

Level: Level 2

The Level 2 award in Welding is ideal for those looking to develop their welding skills at a more advanced level, having already achieved a Level 1 in either MIG, TIG or MMA. Developing and practising the vertical welding of joints, individuals on this course will be required to commit several hours to practising their chosen weld. The theory side to the welding adds a greater depth and develops a wider understanding and knowledge of the chosen welding process.

WHAT WILL I LEARN?

As part of the Level 2 award you will choose to study one of the following:

Metal Inert Gas Welding
Tungsten Inert Gas Welding-Stainless Steel
Tungsten Inert Gas Welding-Steel
Tungsten Inert Gas Welding-Aluminium
Manual Metal Arc –Stick Welding

HOW WILL I BE TAUGHT?

This course is a highly practical course, delivered in our new workshop using state-of-the art equipment. The course content includes the under-pinning knowledge of welding techniques and also covers health and safety. All sessions are practical workshop sessions, although a small amount of reading and research is expected in order to answer the oral questions at the end of the course. Support materials are available.

HOW WILL I BE ASSESSED?

All sessions are practical workshop sessions, with individuals expected to do small amounts of reading and research, in order to complete the knowledge test at the end of the course.

To successfully pass the course, five practical assignments consisting of welding joints in standard horizontal in the PB and PF positions and one oral knowledge test, for each unit studied, must be passed, with successful completion evidencing an individual’s competence in their chosen welding process.

WHAT CAN I DO NEXT?

Completion of the course provides progression onto either another Level 2 award in a different weld process or progression onto the Fabrication and Welding Techniques and Skills - Level 3 Certificate for those learners who have achieved two welding processes at Level 2 and have achieved maths and English at Level 1 or grade D/3.

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

This course is suitable for those who have already achieved Level 1 in the welding process and wish to study at Level 2.
