Outline |
A highly specialized training program, designed for commercial
divers serious about obtaining high quality Manual Metal Arc
(MMA) welding skills both above and below water. The course
follows the guidelines under the European Welding Federation
(EWF) with qualifications being awarded in accordance with
BS EN ISO 15618-1 and/or AWS D3.6-99M.
The training is designed to equip commercial divers with the
skills necessary to produce high quality fillet welds. Students
