Welding classes in California
98 welding programs with costs, results and funding that can make them free
48 schools offer these welding programs, and California has approved every one for workforce funding. Each shows its price if you pay yourself and how past students did.

In California, 56 of the 98 programs take students without a high school diploma, 32 ask for a diploma or equivalent and 10 ask for earlier courses first.
By kind, the 98 programs here are general welding (51 programs), single welding process (12 programs), structural welding (11 programs), pipe welding (11 programs), and 13 more of 3 other kinds.

How to pay for welding classes in California
WIOA funding can pay for welding classes in California
Every program on this page is approved for it. Whether you qualify, how much your local area pays and how to apply are on our page Does WIOA pay for job training?
Financial aid and grants for welding classes
Most students can get federal student aid for college, career school or trade school. A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, usually doesn't have to be repaid. Ask the school whether its program qualifies.67
GI Bill for welding classes
Veterans, service members and qualified dependents can use GI Bill benefits for non-college training programs.8
The program list does not show which programs accept these. Ask the school.
Quick facts: Welding classes in California

Where the California welding program numbers come from
Which California welding programs are on this list?
These are the welding programs California approved for WIOA funding (public workforce funding under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act), as reported to the US Department of Labor for program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025). Each state keeps its approved programs on an eligible training provider list (ETPL).9 The list here covers programs approved as of June 30, 2025. Schools that never applied for approval are missing, so this is a part of what California offers.
How the prices and results of California welding programs are measured
Prices are tuition and required fees for someone paying without workforce funding, as the school reported them; check the current price with the school. Results describe students who left each program in recent years, so they are no guarantee, and the yearly earnings are the reported quarter times four, an estimate. A program without a "Trained with WIOA funding" line may still take WIOA students. Where a field was left empty or withheld, the page says "Not reported", and "Left out" where a figure was filed but failed one of our checks; nothing is estimated to fill a gap. Where the numbers come from explains each figure in full.
