安大略省焊接与制造技术学院文凭

在“焊接与制造技术员”文凭课程中，学生将发展广泛的知识和技能基础，这些知识和技能适用于焊接制造的布局，准备，成形，装配，连接和检查。学生将有机会在剑桥校区一流的现代化设施中学习，在那里他们将花费大量时间在设备齐全的大型焊接和制造车间中开发和运用其技能。学生学习从计算机辅助工程图（CAD）阶段开始的金属加工项目，从零件的切割和成型过程到装配，焊接和检验检查。学生还将有机会使用通过计算机辅助制造（CAM）软件编程的常规和计算机数控（CNC）制造设备。
In the Welding and Fabrication Technician diploma program, students will develop the broad base of knowledge and skills required for the layout, preparation, forming, fitting, joining, and inspection of welded fabrications.Students will have the opportunity to study in the outstanding modern facilities at the Cambridge campus, where they will spend much of their time developing and applying their skills in a well-equipped, full-sized welding and fabrication shop. Students learn to follow metal fabrication projects from the computer-aided engineering drawing (CAD) stage, through the cutting and forming processes of piece parts, to the fitting, welding and inspection of fabrications. Students also have the opportunity to use conventional and computer numerical controlled (CNC) fabrication equipment programmed through the use of computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software.Students will also have the opportunity to develop welding skills with the common arc welding processes such as Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW or stick), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW or MIG), Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW), and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW or TIG). Opportunities to challenge welding skills qualification tests as required by the Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB) and or the Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA) will be provided. (Extra fees payable to these external weld testing authorities will apply, these tests are optional.).<br><br>Graduates will be well-suited to enter the welding and fabrication industry as qualified welders and fitters and also seek opportunities to become an apprentice in several related Red-Seal trades such as Welder (456A), Metal Fabricator - Fitter (437A), Construction Boilermaker (428A), or Ironworker (420A). With work experience and additional testing, graduates may earn certification with the Canadian Welding Bureau as a welding inspector or welding supervisor. On average, 93% of graduates from the last three years (2017 to 2019) found employment within six months of graduation.
