4 schools in Nevada offer welding-related programs, compared below on official cost, completion, and earnings data. Prefer to earn while you learn? 2 registered apprenticeship programs in Nevada train welding apprentices — see apprenticeships. Federal program data groups welding with machining & cnc — schools below may offer any of these.
Occupation pay is what working welding professionals in Nevada earn (all experience levels) — school "earnings" figures above are medians for each school's recent federally-aided students across all its programs, which read lower.
| School | City | Type | Net price / yr | Completion | Earnings (10 yr) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| College of Southern Nevada | Las Vegas | public | $6,615 | 25.3% | $38,087 |
| Truckee Meadows Community College | Reno | public | $8,312 | 42.7% | $44,573 |
| Great Basin College | Elko | public | $8,471 | 43.9% | $39,289 |
| Western Nevada College | Carson City | public | $12,732 | 35.3% | $41,987 |
Ranking = median earnings 10 years after entry per $1,000 of average yearly net price (methodology). Figures are institution-wide federal medians for each school as a whole — not welding graduates specifically. Schools without both figures sort last — "not reported" means the federal dataset lacks the value, not that the school is bad.
