What's it all about?
The Level 3 Awards in Welding Skills are ideal if you have plenty of experience and want to further develop your skills to undertake complex welding work and quality control.
The Advanced Level 3 gives you the opportunity to specialise in one or more welding processes. This level uses a combination of skills you've previously acquired, and new skills gained to complete the practical exercises set. You must complete the practical assessments and an online exam to move onto the Level 3 Welding Unit.
Within this unit you will develop practical skills in welding using the MMA process. You will learn how to work safely whilst preparing to connect pipework using MMA welding methods. These skills meet the needs of candidates who work, or want to work, as Welders in the engineering and construction sectors.
