Heat Rate & Efficiency

Introduction

This course is designed to explain the criteria for welding technology through the process   of welding like Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) & Oxy-Acetylene Gas Welding for theory and practical and other process will be reviewed by theory. Welding defects and Non Destructive Testing (NDT) also reviewed by trainers.

The training format is to bring the participants experience and knowledge about welding process and defect and participants will be actively involved in the class & workshop activities. Hence, it will increase their confidence level.

Participant will be taken through the vast experience of welding technology and performance by the trainers. The emphasis is on participants continuing participation in ensuring the ultimate success of the course.

What people say?

It was a perfect match seeing that i need to work on my confidence.I actually learnt more skills that is needed for me to be able to develop training programs.

The course definitely helped in improving concepts. It would be great if you add more examples of templates for Training evaluation. This would help in creating better sheets in future. Thanks
