Pipe Welding Apprenticeship Review

My role at the minute is to train at Bridgwater and Taunton College to learn the basic fundamental skills of Pipe welding. So I weld in the workshop everyday and try to improve on my welding skills but we also learn how to use equipment appropriately.

I have learned so far how to weld in various positions and how to weld a few types of joints and feel like I have came far from when I started this apprenticeship. I have also learned a wide range of welding termolegy but also learnt how to inspect my welds.

For me personally I enjoy the course as its hands on and I feel like this is a path that will lead to a successful and easy life. [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyApprenticeship Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions]

Well my structure right now every day is the same every week but the structure works very well as I feel like I've learnt the necessary skills before I move onto a new joint which make my learning more efficient and in September I should be going to site.

Well Cavendish have provided us with PPE but they can be slow and usually when it comes to things like gloves the college provided it so on Cavendish I would say its been a little poor with the speed things are done at.

At the college they have been great at trying to support us with are learning by showing us how to do are learning journals at showing us the techniques on how to weld and a very well structured learning plan with equally great facilities.

Well its very important as they teach us the fundamentals of how to weld and pass the high standard so I would say its gonna help massively to preform my role at site.

Well every week we do a pub quiz together. Also at the start of the apprenticeship we had a day of team building exercises. We also have upcoming next year we've been told a whole week of team building in Wales.
