Learn a timeless skill
You’ve definitely used and seen things that were put together with welding. This industry is found all over the world and can be applied from construction to art, making it extremely versatile. Besides joining pieces of metal together, welding requires an array of abilities and techniques in order to do it correctly. From theory to practice, our goal is to provide you with the necessary skill set to be an efficient and reliable welder.
the Training
The Detroit Training Center has created a 180 hour training program to prepare students with the skills necessary to be eligible to use welding equipment in industries. Students will have both lectured styled teachings coupled with hands on training. This program will provide students with the proper training and certifications to operate equipment related to welding. Students will learn welding from AWS and safety from OSHA.

Intro to MIG Welding
The gas metal arc welding (GMAW / “MIG”) process utilizes an electric arc established between a consumable wire electrode and the workpiece. GMAW can be implemented as a manual, semiautomatic, or automatic process, and the flexibility offered by the various process variations is advantageous in many applications.
GMAW provides a considerable increase in weld metal deposition rates compared to GTAW or SMAW, and when implemented as a semi-automatic process, less welder skill is typically required.
