For each part of the above mentioned parts all welding positions are covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The theoretical training, for all methods, helps the candidate to be fully aware of the process, not just executing the process, but to understand the welding process, to act appropriately per production and construction case and to be able to intervene when the possibility of an imperfection arises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The candidate can choose one, two or more methods for his training.<\/strong> The programs of the Welding Greek Institute are the most complete and specialized, covering entirely the Welding process, as indicated by the world&#8217;s leading body, the International Institute of Welding.
