About the Course

Welding is the joining of two or more pieces of metal by applying heat and/or pressure to produce a localized union through fusion (melting) or diffusion acrosss the interface that forms the joint. Many of the common welding methods employ only heat to melt the metals at the interfaces (fusion welding) without application of pressure. Arc welding and oxyfuel welding are examples of processes that use heat to melt the interface and then allow a joint to form by soldification of the molten metal. At the opposite extreme, metals can be welded together by pressure alone. This self-guided digital course uses helpful visuals, narrated animations, and interactive quizzes to teach the basic principles of welding and welding techniques.

This course will take approximately 1.5 to 2 hours to complete.

Learning Outcome
