In partnership with Coastworks, we’re proud to have helped BAE Systems to deliver another milestone in the Type 26 programme.

Some of the Malin Abram and Malin Marine Services team recently took part in our Welding for Non Welders course, which provided an overview of how to read drawings and technical documentation, as well as providing an understanding of key welding processes, terminology and standards - plus some hands on time in the workshop.

The team all thoroughly enjoyed the course and noted that it provided a lot of information on the different types of welding (practical), NDT and theory. Designed for a variety of roles within the sector, the 4 day overview aims to strengthen your knowledge, understanding and ability to collaborate with your design and build colleagues. Indeed, as one participant put it, 'absolutely brilliant course and instructors. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an introduction into the world of welding.'
