Superior students ace FVCC welding program
Montana Technical Institute in Butte offers a two-year program where students are introduced to welding fabrication, pipe and structural welding, and aluminum welding — but a faster-track does exist.
Earlier this month, 10 students from a welding class that Jeff Schultz has taught at Superior School for nine years would most likely be eligible for that fast-track program. Each student received the AWS 1G welding certification at Flathead Valley Community College in Kalispell.
“The most that we’ve ever had pass was four,” said Schultz. “Earlier this year I took my other class up there and we had one out of seven passed. So having 10 out of 10 was crazy. Nobody could believe it. All of the instructors couldn’t believe it.”
