NICC offering Intro to Welding class

Northeast Iowa Community College (NICC) Business and Community Solutions is offering an “Intro to Welding” class series which will meet each Saturday in September, September 7, 14, 21 and 28, from 8 a.m.-12 p.m. at the Waukon High School.

With the skills learned in this 16-hour class, those attending will understand safe welding practices, become familiar with welding equipment, use basic measuring tools, and learn to weld from different positions. Once they have learned those basic skills, they’ll have dedicated time to do a welding project of their choice - anything from a farm or home project to an art piece - with steel that they, themselves, provide.

Project size is limited and must be approved by the instructor at the first class. The registration deadline is August 23.
