KCC Offering Welding Training In Hastings this Fall!

Starting this fall, students can complete nearly all of the training modules required to earn an Industrial Welding Certificate from Kellogg Community College in Hastings.

KCC’s fall Industrial Welding training in Hastings will take place in the Welding Lab at Hastings High School, located at 520 W. South St. The training will run through KCC’s fall semester – which starts Aug. 25 and ends Dec. 12 – on a flexible basis, meaning students can drop in to complete training at their own pace at any time during open lab hours for their selected section.

Students can begin training at almost any time during the semester as space allows, adding modules on as time allows for completion by the end of the semester.

Sections available include:

• Welding Section 8230, with training open 3:30 to 7 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays
• Welding Section 8232, with training open 3:30 to 7 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays

Each section consists of 53 short training modules focused on specific welding competencies, ranging from safety tutorials and blueprint reading to specific joining, cutting and other welding practices.

Students who complete all the modules in each section can earn up to 23.53 credits toward KCC’s 25-credit Industrial Welding Certificate and 60-credit Associate of Applied Science in Industrial Welding degree.

Limited space is available in each section, so interested individuals are encouraged to sign up as soon as possible. For more information or to sign up for a section, contact the Fehsenfeld Center at 269-948-9500 or centerf@kellogg.edu.

The College also offers welding modules on the Regional Manufacturing Technology Center campus in Battle Creek and Eastern Academic Center campus in Albion. For more information about KCC’s Industrial Welding Program, visit kellogg.edu/welding.
