Does it feel like too much for one workday?

No worries. This course is designed for regular people, not overachieving robots.

The day is highly hands-on, and all learning happens in the workshop with tools in hand—learning by doing, in other words. The day is sprinkled with only essential theory, meaning that between exercises, we explain what we're doing, how, and why. The exercises are straightforward and easy to grasp.

By the end of the day, participants will have the necessary skills, understanding, and confidence to start welding and continue practicing independently.

Basic Plus and Premium course participants will receive a guidebook based on the course content to take home. It serves as a refresher when practicing independently after the course.

Guidebook

The course day is intensive and packed with new information.
It’s impossible to remember everything, so we’ve created a guidebook for participants to take home.

This 75-page booklet contains all the topics covered during the course day. True to the course style, the text is concise, and there are plenty of images. Available as a traditional physical booklet and in digital PDF format.

The guidebook is included in the Basic Plus and Premium packages.
You can read samples from the articles to get a taste of the workbook's content.
