Bellingham Technical College

School type: Public Technical School

Bellingham Technical College offers hands-on welding and fabricating education at its Bellingham campus. Students can pursue AAS or AAS-T degrees in general welding and structural fabrication, select parallel degree pathways specializing in pipe welding, or complete a three-quarter Basic Welding Skills certificate. Required welding study covers safety, cutting, blueprint reading, Stick, MIG, TIG, Flux-Core, metallurgy, fabrication, and advanced welder testing, with pipe pathways adding pipe layout, fitting, fabrication, and open-root pipe welding.
