What Preparation and Training Do You Need?

To become a Welder you should complete Grade 12 with credits in

mathematics (particularly technical math) and some shop courses. In Ontario,

welding is an unrestricted trade; completion of an apprenticeship could take

approximately 3 years including 3 periods of 8 weeks (720 hours) in-school

theory. Upon successful completion of the training agreement, you will

receive a Certificate of Apprenticeship.

What’s Your Future as a Welder?

Most workers in this occupation work full-time, sometimes in shift work,

usually indoors. Those with the ability to work with high-technology welding

applications may have better employment opportunities. The bulk of

employment opportunities are predicted to occur in the non-electrical,

machinery, construction and metal-fabricating industries. Some workers will

become self-employed. Examples of companies that employ welders include:

• Fabricating shops;

• Manufacturers of structural steel and platework;

• Construction industries;

• Boilers;

• Heavy machinery contractors;

• Aircraft contractors;

• Ship building and other transportation contractors;

• Specialized welding shops.

Wage Rate

• as an apprentice you would start at a wage rate less than that of a

journeyperson

• this rate increases gradually as you gain competency
