verse Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Does anyone know if there are any adult classes to learn to weld around the Columbus area? I'm thinking like a 6-8 week class to just learn the basics. It keeps me from doing a lot of things I'd like to do, and I think it'd be fun to learn how. I have a little experience learning in autobody class, but I only did it for a day or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomZoom6 Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 I know the South-Western Career Academy (in Grove City by Central Crossing High School) has night classes open to the public. Not too sure exactly if they have a class devoted to welding but I would check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you sign up for them? Just go to the school during normal school hours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossle Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 CSCC offers a 2 part welding certification class, not sure about the details, but it was brought up in our tech class the other week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpfiend Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 I am very interested in this as well- I took the JVS class but it is mainly focused on arc welding (buzz box) which I cannot stand. a tig/gas focused class would be awesome- also for certification purposes that would be sweet- I have often daydreamed of going to the hobart or lincoln welding schools which we are lucky to have both in ohio but it is a week long, not cheap, and would have to miss a lot of work for a "hobby".

Science Abuse Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 It shouldn't take 6-8 weeks to learn the basics. My industrial "welding class" went like this: - Hey Eric *ya? -sit here *k -do this *k -no dumbass, like this *sry, k -good enough, stay here and get better.
