Everett Community College

A 43-credit stackable certificate combining manufacturing safety, introductory welding, blueprint reading, and 18-28 credits selected from welding and fabrication courses. Available choices include oxy-fuel cutting, Stick, pipe, TIG, MIG, flux-cored, sheet-metal and pipe fabrication, advanced TIG, aerospace fabrication, CNC plasma/waterjet cutting, and welding skill-building. EvCC states that graduates demonstrate the equivalent of one year of experience in the metal trades, and the certificate stacks into the Welding ATA degree.

A 90-credit Associate in Technical Arts completed in about two years full-time. The degree develops professional welding and fabrication ability through safety, layout, blueprint reading, metallurgy, base materials and processes, nondestructive testing, cutting, welding-process laboratories, technical electives, and an optional welding capstone, internship, or robotics work. Students select practical courses that may include Stick, pipe, TIG, MIG, flux-cored, fabrication, aerospace, and advanced welding subjects.

A 90-credit employment-focused Associate in Technical Arts. Its required welding core includes safety, introductory processes, layout, blueprint or engineering graphics, Stick, pipe, TIG, and MIG welding. Electives can add flux-cored welding, metallurgy, nondestructive testing, heavy plate, sheet metal and pipe fabrication, advanced welding, an internship, and other manufacturing subjects, followed by a manufacturing-team or welding capstone.

A 17-credit stackable certificate requiring manufacturing safety, introduction to welding, basic layout, and Gas Metal Arc Welding. It provides an initial pathway into EvCC's larger Welding Certificate and Welding ATA credentials.

A 40-credit stackable advanced-manufacturing certificate. Required work covers safety, introductory welding or base materials, Stick, basic pipe, TIG, MIG, and engineering graphics or blueprint reading. Additional options include metallurgy, advanced arc welding, flux-cored welding, plate, sheet-metal, pipe and aerospace fabrication, practical advanced welding, skills building, and work experience.

A 20-credit stackable certificate for students with prior welding experience who want focused TIG training. Required courses cover manufacturing safety, basic layout, industrial blueprint reading, Gas Tungsten Arc Welding, and Advanced TIG Welding.

A 35-credit, two-quarter certificate designed for entry-level manufacturing and aerospace work. Coursework covers manufacturing safety, engineering graphics, basic layout, aerospace sheet-metal fabrication, press-brake and submerged-arc work, CNC plasma cutting, and specialized TIG welding. The certificate can stand alone or stack into EvCC advanced-manufacturing credentials.

A 17-credit stackable certificate for students with previous welding experience. Required courses include manufacturing safety, basic layout, blueprint reading for industry, and press-brake/submerged-arc welding.

A self-paced online career-training course introducing workplace safety, welding mathematics and drawings, material handling, welding equipment and processes, metallurgy, welding quality and symbols, and career skills. The official course includes a tool package and is designed as foundational technician training rather than a substitute for EvCC's on-campus welding laboratories.
