The laboratories and shops are similar tomany of the environments in which students will be working following graduation. Training aids and simulators areprovided to enhance understanding of theory. The Library is equipped with a variety of training aids such asPage 3
textbooks, instructional workbooks, historical books, industry code books, safety regulations, DVD instructionalvideos and internet access.Page 4
Training MethodsWelding training is skills-based and is continually updated to reflect the best industrial practices. We follow specificperformance objectives and programs are designed to meet specific criteria for each phase of training. We use fourproven forms of instruction.1.2.3.4.Lecture/discussion with audio-visual aids to introduce key concepts.Demonstration to model proper technique.Supervised individual practice with one-on-one instructor coaching to give students an opportunity toincorporate new skills.Systematic practical and written testing to ensure that students have mastered key concepts and skills.Weld testing (fracturing, bending or sectioning) is a major part of each skill course to help overcome thefear of on-the-job qualification tests. Activities include classroom instruction, lab practice, simulated workenvironments, and actual job site experience.An Advisory Committee will also evaluate the school’s program success annually (sooner if deemed necessary) toensure program success and improvement if needed. This will be done by student academic records andemployment/placement records.Hours of OperationOffice Hours:Monday thru Thursday7:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.FridayClosedClass Schedules:Monday thru Thursday7:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.Evening Class:Monday thru Thursday2:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.BTI follows Rockbridge County Public Schools schedule in cases of inclement weather.Holiday ScheduleNew Year’s DayThanksgiving Break (4 days)Memorial DayWinter Break (3d week of December)Independence DayLabor DayPage 5
CurriculumAccelerated Welding ProgramThe Accelerated Welding Program is an eight (8) module course that will prepare a student with little or no weldingexperience for an entry level structural, fabrication welding position in a fabrication workplace or in thecommercial/industrial construction field. This program also allows students who have previous welding experienceto begin training at their level of experience by completing or challenge testing the entry level modules andcontinuing their training in eight (8) additional advanced welding modules. These additional modules focus on thepipe welding and advanced blueprint reading skills and will prepare students for an entry level pipe welding positionin the commercial/industrial construction field. Students will train in the Byers Technical Institute welding lab for 32hours per week for a total of 14 weeks. At the successful conclusion of this program the student will take two (2)welding certification exams (ASME/AWS). Students who successfully complete the program will also receive anindustrial/extended boom forklift operator certification and a 10-hour OSHA training certification.14 Weeks448 Clock Hours 4,480.00Tuition 625.00Safety Equipment and Tool Package 575.00Books and Testing MaterialRequired Modules- Must complete to receive program certificate1)2)3)4)5)6)7)8)Program Orientation/Welding SafetyOxy-Fuel and Plasma CuttingBasic SMAW (Stick)Basic GMAW / FCAW (MIG/Flux Core)Advanced SMAW or Advanced GMAWIntroduction to Blueprint Reading / Trade MathOSHA 10 HourForklift Operator CertificationElective Modules – Must complete or pass challenge test for required modules prior to beginning training1)2)3)4)5)6)7)8)Basic GTAW (TIG)Advanced GTAWSMAW PipeGTAW PipeGTAW/SMAW Heavy Wall PipeGTAW Stainless Steel PipeAdvanced Blueprint Reading / Trade MathFirst Aid / CPRPage 6
