Welding Camp Planned For Fall Break

Walters State’s Division of Workforce Training will offer a welding camp during fall break. The camp will meet Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 10-11, from 8:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. at the Workforce Training Building in Greeneville.

The cost is $199 and space is limited. 

“This gives students the chance to try out a very lucrative career option and learn some valuable skills,” Dr. Anita Ricker, assistant dean of the division, said. “The camp is hands-on with an emphasis on safety. Students will learn two very common welding processes, gas metal and shielded metal.”

Those processes are more commonly known as MIG and STICK welding.

No previous experience is required. The class also introduces students to equipment and industry standards.
