The program leads to certificates internationally accredited by GQA, City & Guilds, and ACCET. It is designed to provide students with a balanced combination of engineering theory and practical hands-on experience. This will ensure graduates have the required job entry skills to work within the energy sector upon completion.

Each student will complete the Academic and PEO foundation training before entering the Program.

Upon completing the Welding program, the graduates will be able to:

• Interpret welding documents and extract information that includes common structural material shapes, symbols, and abbreviations.
• Select the appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and safely use power tools in the workplace.
• Prepare for butt welding in plate from drawings in the flat, horizontal, vertical, and overhead positions using the SMAW (Shielded Metal Arc Welding) processes.
• Safely set-up and use oxy-acetylene equipment for welding and cutting operations.
• Identify stringer bead parts, weld defects, and understand the requirement for pre and post heat treatment.
• Safely set-up and operate arc welding equipment to specification.
• Identify fillet weld parts and satisfactorily carry out single and multi-run welds in flat, horizontal, vertical, inclined, and overhead positions using shielded metal arc welding process (SMAW).
• Prepare and set-up a pipe for welding full penetration butt joints in the rotated, horizontal, vertical up and inclined positions to the required standards.
• Safely set up and carry out welding using gas tungsten arc (GTAW) and gas metal arc welding (GMAW) techniques and procedures.
• Meet all the 6G/S01 certification requirements.
