What this program covers
Treasure Valley Community College's recorded URL (tvcc.cc) redirects to the college's actual domain, treasurevalleycc.edu. The college offers three welding credential pathways: a Combination Welder Career Pathways Certificate (described as a step-out point for students not pursuing welding as a full-time career), a one-year Welding Technology certificate, and an Industrial Welding Technology Associate of Applied Science degree (not designed for transfer to a four-year institution, though some coursework may transfer). The curriculum covers MIG, TIG, stick arc, plasma, flux core, shielded metal arc, and oxyacetylene welding and cutting processes. Students prepare for American Welding Society (AWS) certification, with individual certifications available in MIG, TIG, Arc, and Pipe Welding. A minimum 2.0 GPA is required to graduate. The page does not state class schedule format, financial aid, or facility details.
