Welding - Evening course at Falkirk College
« on: December 17, 2014, 08:23:44 PM »
I've just spotted an evening course at Forth Valley College Falkirk campus, 12 weeks 6pm to 9pm, Starts 17th Feb - £100  for the course,

There is a possibility of getting grants towards it and a genuine Qual at the end of it..  Thought I'd learn how to MIG weld...

5 places left ....

Check it out and book at: http://www.forthvalley.ac.uk/courses/fabrication_welding/235526

My mudmaster navigator and I did this course about 3 years ago or longer. He has a rotten Nova in his garage we were going to turn into a track car. Nothing ever came of that. I suspect there will be no metal left to weld to!!

It was quite a good course being taught stick, mig and Tig welding and gaining a recognised qualification at the end of it.

Well there are 5 places left for the course so get booked up before they are gone. A bit of an LR gang would be good too.

At £100 I make that a 100% bargain !

Just followed the link to this, however I do not seem to find the evening course, only the full year course?

If there is still spaces I would be interested in this

I don't think they had time to set up the Thursday course on the website before they closed for Christmas. Check again in the New Year and they should have places on the Thursdays.
