Entry Requirements:
The Nelson Technical School (the forerunner of NMIT) was set up in 1904 and the building was designed by Stead Ellis, a trained architect and secretary to the Nelson Education Board. The doors opened in 1905, initially offering classes in cookery, engineering, woodwork, commerce, craft, secretarial and plumbing.
The land that the building sits on was donated by Nelson City Council and construction was led by John Scott Jnr at a cost of £1124. In 1930, the Technical School was merged with Nelson College with many part-time hobby classes and a few vocational courses being offered. Nelson Polytechnic officially became a technical institute in 1971.
If you wish to gain AS/NZS2980:2018 certification, this course provides time for preparation, set up and the practical welding assessment itself, under the supervision of an Ara tutor. Your test pieces will then be examined by the external agency issuing the certificate.
This practical hands-on micro-credential is ideal for anyone who has no or very little MIG welding knowledge or experience and also for those wanting a refresher in this specific type of welding.
Bring along your projects (or ideas) and the experienced tutor will help you. Some consumables are provided for initial welding practice. However materials for projects will need to be paid for and supplied by students.
This course introduces the safe use of oxyacetylene, manual metal arc and gas metal arc welding. No prior knowledge of welding is required for these introductory classes.
