ENTRY REQUIREMENTS:
- x 1 certified ID copy,
(Foreign nationals: x1 certified passport copy, x1 certified residential visa copy, x1 certified copy of student/work permit)
- School certificate, x 1 certified copy thereof, (minimum Grade 9)
- Completed OTT registration form
INTRODUCTION purpose:
This qualification provides learners with the range of learning and skills required to be able to perform a series of activities to support in the welding industry. Learners will acquire a range of skills in the welding field.
The need for repair, maintenance and installation of metal structures, products, equipment, vehicles, furniture & more in the residential, commercial and industrial sectors is ever increasing. Welding is foreseen to form a vital part of the industry far into the future. Our Welding Skills Programmes are developed to improve specific skills relevant in the current work environment.
During our programmes, it is top priority to instill work safety habits and continuous cognizance of hazard identification, to ensure not only compliance to regulation and conformance to best practice, but also create a work culture of no compromise in Health and Safety.
Whether you want to improve the efficiency of your workforce or yourself, progress with the goal of acquiring a full qualification, or develop skills required for specific applications, one of our Registered Welding Programmes might be your answer.
Recommended Entry Criteria - Grade 9 with Maths and Science

TIME PERIOD
This Program can be presented over a period of 3 years, whereby theory training will be completed over 12 months of the 36 months.
The course covers 12 months at the institution which is made up of Fundamental units covering numeracy and literacy, as well as core and elective modules that are selected to meet the minimum required to achieve the qualification.
Learners will complete formative assessments which will be recorded in their POE’s Learners are then required to complete exposure at the worksite gaining valuable practical training against the modules completed for 24 months of the 36 months. The candidate is responsible for practical work placement.
