Program Summary

Humber’s Welding Techniques certificate program is designed to help introduce prospective welders to the trade. The program aims to facilitate employment and entry into the apprenticeship program by giving students practical experience with trade regulations and practices. They will gain a solid understanding of the various technical theory and elements of the welding trade. Students will be exposed to topics including health and safety, blueprint reading and sketching, applied math, communication, shielded metal arc welding, gas metal arc welding, introduction to computers, and all position structural welding. They will learn valuable skills by using the latest industry software programs and working in fully equipped up-to-date labs and shops. At Humber, skilled instructors highlight current trends within the industry and strive to duplicate situations that apprentices and skilled tradespeople will see in their everyday working life.


Upon completion, students are eligible to be tested for the Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB) certification. A separate fee applies for this certification. At Humber, we have a higher than 95 per cent success rate for those who challenge the CWB certification.
