Welcome

Can-Weld Training & Testing Centre is a registered Private Career College in Ontario offering plate and pipe welding to those seeking a trade in welding. Our full plate and pipe welding course is a 700 hour program.  We also take into account personal goals and experiences by offering a customized program. As a high demand vocational school people living in and around Sarnia-Lambton, and as far as 75 kilometers away, such as Wallaceburg, Walpole Island, Blenheim, London and Grand Bend attend Can-Weld.

To meet the needs of our students and welders, Can-Weld services include an accredited test center for the Canadian Welding Bureau (C.W.B.) as well as providing testing through the Technical Standards & Safety Authority (T.S.S.A.) site for testing and recertification of welding tickets.

Along with maintaining an accredited test center, Can-Weld practices do-diligence with safety by providing an internal safety team as well as a C.W.B. certified Welding Health and Safety course.  Our company policy and procedures enforce humidex and safety guidelines, including standards set by the Ministry for gasses and fumes.

We take great pride by offering a solid welding program and a facility worthy of any educational trade school.  In fact, many organizations and local businesses work in cooperation with Can-Weld as we have spent close to a decade establishing a successful business relationship.
