I’ve been a sheet metal welder for 20 years. I took the TIG Saturday course to update my certification, and I’m delighted, the tutor was patient and helped me refine my techniques. I’ll be back for the MIG course soon!
I started as a beginner and now I’m progressing to new processes. The training centre is fantastic, and the tutor made everything easy to understand. Highly recommend NWI!
I came to Ireland from Croatia as a self-taught welder. NWI helped me upskill and gain certification, I’ve learned new techniques I never knew existed!
