Why welding?
Look around you. Do you see anything that could have been produced without the welding industry?
Whether it is plastic, synthetic material, wood, steel or any type of metal, everything you see has some type of welding throughout its process, whether it is in the manufacturing process or the finished product.
Is there work within the industry?
Welding is a multi-billion dollar industry with job opportunities throughout the nation and abroad.
How do you qualify for these jobs?
Have mechanical ability, good work ethic, proper training by skilled instructors and a clean UA.
Why NAF?
With over fifty-two years combined experience and the dedication of our instructors you will experience 480 hours over twelve intense weeks of training. Our atmosphere is relaxed although you will always know you learned a lot throughout the day.
