There are THREE upcoming Welding Technology program start dates in June... wait, no, that's not quite right. Oh, we know now, there are three upcoming Welding Technology with ORBITAL SPECIALIZATION program start dates coming in June, a crucial style of welding for space travel and Florida's Space Coast.

The welding program we all know and love is adding orbital specialization where students will experience hands-on training in the in-demand automated form (which needs plenty of human oversight to setup, calibrate and more) of welding that increases accuracy and weld integrity.

It’s not only what you learn in a program that puts you in a position to make a difference in your industry, it’s the community you build like these Clinical Medical Assistant + EKG graduates and their instructor.

It helps students understand how to succeed in their careers, and that they always have support on their journeys!

We still have commencement excitement around here! Two Clinical Medical Assistant + EKG graduates expressed their elation, and what it meant having their instructor there to share in their joy.

Sharyham Gomez has her sights set on a political science degree followed by law school, but is excited to work as a clinical medical assistant, as well. Meanwhile, Hayam Benyahya is also graduating from UCF with a degree in biomedical sciences before heading to med school with the goal of becoming a neurosurgeon.

We are proud of these two!
