AcknowledgmentsThe Welding curriculum is being presented to the Mississippi Board of Education on November7, 2019. The following persons are serving on the State Board at this time:Dr. Carey M. Wright, State Superintendent of EducationDr. Jason S. Dean, ChairMr. Buddy Bailey, Vice-ChairMrs. Rosemary G. AultmanDr. Karen J. ElamDr. John R. KellyMrs. Brittany RyeMr. Sean SuggsMs. Shelby Dean, Student RepresentativeMr. Omar G. Jamil, Student RepresentativeWendy Clemons, Associate Superintendent of Education, Office of Career and TechnicalEducation at the Mississippi Department of Education, assembled a taskforce committee toprovide input throughout the development of the Welding Curriculum Framework andSupporting Materials.Jo Ann Watts, Instructional Design Specialist for the Research and Curriculum Unit atMississippi State University researched and facilitated the writing of this framework.Jo.Watts@rcu.msstate.eduAlso, special thanks are extended to the teachers who contributed teaching and assessmentmaterials that are included in the framework and supporting materials:Dale Box, Greene County Career and Technical Center, Leaksville, MSChevis Necaise, Hancock County Career and Technical Center, Kiln, MSPaul Hefner, Jackson County Career Center, Vancleave, MSAppreciation is expressed to the following professional, who provided guidance and insightthroughout the development process:Mike Barkett, President, Mississippi Construction Education Foundation, Pearl, MSBetsey Smith, Associate Director for the Research and Curriculum Unit at Mississippi StateUniversityBrad Skelton, Project Manager for the Research and Curriculum Unit at Mississippi StateUniversityMelissa Luckett, Instructional Design Specialist for the Research and Curriculum Unit atMississippi State University4
StandardsStandards are superscripted in each unit and are referenced in the appendices. Standards in theWelding Curriculum Framework and Supporting Materials are based on the following:The NCCER developed and published a set of industry standards that are taught nationwide bycontractors, associations, construction users, and secondary and postsecondary schools called theNCCER Learning Series. When developing this set of standards, the NCCER assembled a teamof subject matter experts that represented construction companies and schools across the nation.Each committee met several times and combined experts’ knowledge and experience to finalizethe set of national industry standards.As a part of the accreditation process, all Mississippi Construction Technology instructors willbe required to successfully complete the Instructor Certification Training Program. This programensures that instructors possess a deep knowledge of content of the standards.This state-of-the-art curriculum is modeled after the eight Mississippi NCCER AccreditedTraining and Education Facilities (ATEF). In order to become an NCCER ATEF program,school districts must meet a set of guidelines including the following:1. Use the approved curriculum.2. All instructors must be NCCER certified.3. All completed Form 200s and release forms on all student completions are to beforwarded to MCEF for proper approval. MCEF will in turn forward to NCCER forprocessing.4. Follow NCCER guidelines on test security and performance profiles.5. Have an active advisory committee with at least two commercial contractors involved.6. Follow safety practices and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)standards used in the class and lab areas.7. Involve commercial contractors in class presentations or field trips.8. All construction programs must be included in the accreditation process.9. Show active involvement in student leadership development (e.g., SkillsUSA).10. Provide demonstrated placement into construction-related occupations and timely reportsto MCEF.Districts will be required to complete a self-evaluation of all programs and host a site visit fromindustry to ensure proper lab, safety, and instructional procedures are in place.College and Career-Ready StandardsThe College and Career-Ready Standards emphasize critical thinking, teamwork andproblem-solving skills. Students will learn the skills and abilities demanded by theworkforce of today and the future. Mississippi adopted Mississippi College- and CareerReady Standards (MCCRS) because they provide a consistent, clear understanding ofwhat students are expected to learn so that teachers and parents know what they need todo to help them.

PrefaceSecondary career and technical education programs in Mississippi face many challengesresulting from sweeping educational reforms at the national and state levels. Schools andteachers are increasingly being held accountable for providing true learning activities to everystudent in the classroom. This accountability is measured through increased requirements formastery and attainment of competency as documented through both formative and summativeassessments.The courses in this document reflect the statutory requirements as found in Section 37-3-49,Mississippi Code of 1972, as amended (Section 37-3-46). In addition, this curriculum reflectsguidelines imposed by federal and state mandates (Laws, 1988, Ch. 487, §14; Laws, 1991, Ch.423, §1; Laws, 1992, Ch. 519, §4 eff. from and after July 1, 1992; Carl D. Perkins VocationalEducation Act IV, 2007; and No Child Left Behind Act of 2001).7
