Industrial Pipefitting

Just a few of the many rewarding careers included under "Pipefitting" and related trades are:

  • Pipefitter 
  • Plumber 
  • Steamfitter

All types of fluids and gasses flow through piping systems. These systems are critical to the productive operation of any manufacturing facility. This means a high demand level for graduates from our Pipefitting Program. Incomes for experienced people in these trades can range from $25,000 - $50,000* per year. Since piping systems can see very expensive problems if they are not fixed in a timely manner, the expertise of people with pipefitting knowledge is of great value to business and industry.

Graduates of our pipefitting program can enjoy a wide variety of job opportunities since we have provided an excellent background for their trades. For those completers who are already employed, they may successfully bid on more jobs at their companies. And those who are still seeking employment when they graduate shouldn't have to wait long for a selection of employers and work locations.
