Tour of Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) welding school.

Thanks to student Liam Ellis for this tour of the welding school at Salt Lake Community College’s Westpointe Workforce Training and Education Center which has been providing high-quality instruction to thousands of skilled workers across the region. Students have, in turn, benefited from instruction in numerous skilled disciplines including advanced manufacturing, machining, composites technology, non-destructive testing, diesel technology, commercial truck driving, and welding. Each program is taught in actual working environments, lab spaces, classrooms, and shop spaces. AJC Architects worked with SLCC stakeholders in designing this crucial technology and trades training center that ensures students will receive training which meets the ongoing demands of Utah’s high-growth technical and trade industries. The welding school has 106 welding booths in 10,500 square feet of floor space, with double high ceilings.
