The American Welding Society modular certification allows a student to obtain certification through the AWS as an entry-level welder, Level I. These modular certifications are specific to given welding processes.
Metropolitan Community College awards certificates to students who complete various career and technical programs. While each campus offers some of the same certificates, others are offered only at one of the MCC campuses.
IMPORTANT: Certificate and degree requirements may change! Please consult an academic advisor before enrolling.
