Eastern Florida State College provides welding training at its Cocoa campus through a limited-access, 1,050-clock-hour Welding Technology Career and Technical Certificate and a separate short non-credit course. The full-time certificate combines theory with shop practice in Stick, MIG and TIG welding, pipe and structural applications, fabrication, metallurgy, blueprint reading, cutting and certification-oriented performance. It starts each fall and runs for two 20-week terms. The seven-week continuing-education course focuses on Flux-Core welding and includes a hands-on test for AWS 2G and 3G certification eligibility.
