As an Apprentice Welder, you will work alongside experienced Welders and gain the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in your welding career. You will become familiar with various types of welding and equipment, learn about safety and quality standards, and develop your welding technique all under the supervision of a seasoned professional or team of welders. As your skills increase, so will your responsibilities, giving you the hands-on experience you need to enter this career.
| Aspect | Welder Apprentice | Welder |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | High school diploma or equivalent; on-the-job training; sometimes certifications in welding safety | Completed apprenticeship or training; certifications like AWS welding certification often required |
