Heartland Community College Lincoln enrolling expanded welding courses

 

[July 23, 2024]    Heartland Community College Lincoln is now enrolling students in new welding classes.

The HCC Lincoln program provides more opportunity for Logan county students while also maintaining the welding skills and industrial technology offerings on the Main Campus in Normal.

Lincoln welding classes will be held in the Fall 2024 semester, beginning with an 8 week 100-level intro course. Students will be able to advance to a 200-level advanced course after the completion of the first. Students completing the two-course sequence will earn the Gas Metal Arc Welding Basics microcertificate and will be on the pathway to completing the larger 16-hour Welding Skills Certificate.

The Welding Skills Certificate is stackable into a larger Industrial Technology Applied Associate of Science should a student decide to pursue a degree.

“Welding is an in-demand career in Logan County and Heartland is excited to provide the training locally for students to enter the workforce in just four months," said Heartland Community College Lincoln Director Jennifer Kirby.
