Gas Metal Arc Welding, also known as GMAW is a popular welding process that uses a continuous solid wire electrode and shielding gas to create high-quality and efficient welds. This type of welding is widely used in manufacturing, construction, and automotive industries.

For those who are interested in pursuing a career in GMAW, it is important to undergo proper training and assessment from accredited centers. TESDA provides accreditation for training and assessment centers that meet the standards and requirements for GMAW training.
What is GMAW?
Gas metal arc welding, also known as metal inert gas (MIG) or metal active gas (MAG), is a welding process where an electric arc forms between a consumable MIG wire electrode and the workpiece metal, heating them to fuse together.
