The Chambersburg Center is located at 1669 Opportunity Ave in the Cumberland Valley Business Park near the Letterkenny Army Depot. The facility occupies approximately 11,000 square feet of classroom, laboratory, and office space, with a 5,000-square-foot Weld Shop at its center housing 30 individual welding booths.
The center offers an associate degree in Welding and Fabrication Technology, one of the most in-demand trades in the country. The American Welding Society projects that 320,500 new welding professionals will be needed by 2029, and with more than 157,000 current professionals approaching retirement age, the need for qualified welders is only growing.
Students train in oxy-acetylene, stick, TIG, MIG, and core wire processes and gain hands-on experience in blueprint reading, fabrication, and plate and pipe welding. They also have the opportunity to earn industry-recognized certifications including the AWS D1.1 (3G and 4G) plate welding certification and API 1104 and ASME IX pipe welding certifications.
