I was looking for a course in welding in London and used the usual search engine to find some examples. There were a few promising residential course of 3 days intensive welding. These were in Scotland and Wolverhampton so would have been expensive for the travel and accomodation costs.

There was also an intensive course with Thacham but that was more for the professionals needing to pass exams etc and it was a bit over my price range.

There were plenty of college courses but I needed one with easy access either from home or work. I ended up selecting Welding for Artists at Chelsea which so far has given lots of practical experience in MIG welding and some spot welding.
