Yukon University's Welding Pre-Apprenticeship Certificate is a 20-week, full-time, on-campus program at the Whitehorse campus that introduces students to industrial welding, from oxyacetylene torches to current welding techniques. The curriculum combines theoretical trade knowledge with hands-on shop practice, covering safety protocols and welding across materials ranging from iron to aluminum. Students develop job safety awareness and workplace hazard skills alongside practical welding technique, working toward the theoretical requirements for Level I apprenticeship. Graduates receive technical credit toward Yukon apprenticeship and the opportunity to challenge the Welding Apprenticeship Level 1 exam, preparing them for employment as first-year apprentices in the trade. Applicants need suitable work clothes and steel-toed footwear before shop work begins. Students must maintain an overall grade of 70% (a C average) across all courses to graduate.
