Welding 101

Arc Welding for Beginners

Curious about welding but not sure where to start? This hands-on course is designed especially for complete beginners who want to learn the fundamentals of arc welding in a relaxed, supportive environment.

You’ll be taught by a qualified, coded welder with real-world experience, so you can feel confident you’re learning solid, practical skills that actually translate to the workshop.

Throughout the day, you’ll get to grips with:

  • Striking and maintaining an arc

  • Running clean weld beads

  • Joining steel safely and effectively

  • Setting up your welder correctly

  • Choosing the right electrodes

  • Understanding how different metals behave

With sessions limited to just 1–2 participants, you’ll benefit from plenty of one-to-one guidance and hands-on practice.

We can teach MMA (stick) welding and MIG/MAG welding, so you can spend the full day focused on one technique or do a morning on one type and an afternoon on the other!
