Students attend on a full-time basis and are in a self-paced, continuous intake program. Training involves practical and theoretical applications. Students receive credit in the Welding Provincial Standard Log Book upon completion of the Foundation Program. Over and above the program units, students are expected to participate in projects and, in such cases, prepare materials and steel for the college.
