What institutions offer welding courses?

In the United States, the three top welding schools that prepare students for structural welder and master welder certification are: Tulsa Welding School (in Tulsa, OK and Jacksonville, FL), Hobart Institute of Welding Technology (in Troy, OH), and Lincoln Electric Welding School (in Cleveland, OH). Completion of these programs will provide qualifications for more advanced (greater than entry level) welding jobs.
