Welding Technology

Train for a successful career in welding with experts who have over 60 years combined experience in the field! 

The Welding Technology Program at GCCC brings you real-life learning to the classroom. With state-of-the art facilities and daily hands-on training, you can earn certifications through the American Welding Society (AWS) as well as Kansas Board of Regents (KBOR) approved certificates (Certificate A or C). With an additional 18 credits of general education requirements, you can even earn an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) in Welding Technology. 

Students entering the program attend class 32 hours per week, simulating a work environment they can expect upon entering the workforce. Like any jobsite, safety is our top priority, and students entering the program must complete a safety course before learning other skills such as shielded metal arc welding, gas metal arc welding, torch operation, blueprint reading, entry-level pipefitting, and more. Our instructors have worked decades in the industry and can help you learn, train, and make your next move.

We welcome students of all skill levels and backgrounds. Class sizes are limited to 24 students, so call 620-276-9679 to learn more, schedule a tour, or enroll!
