Hogan values education.
 
COLLEGE and UNIVERSITY

So much so that Hogan will cover 50% of the tuition costs for approved Bachelor's or Master's degree programs, as well as technical school courses, including those in Construction Management and similar programs.

To qualify, Hogan employees must do the following:

  • Pay for his or her tuition upfront. At the end of the semester, the employee must submit for reimbursement. Hogan will then reimburse the employee for half of the paid tuition. (Hogan will not reimburse for books, lab fees, test fees, or other expenses such as housing or parking.)
  • Receive a B- or better for a course to be reimbursed.
  • Work full-time for Hogan, averaging at least 30 hours or more each week to qualify. The student does not need to be full-time at school.
 
WELDING TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS

We will also pay for half of the tuition and fees (including registration, student fees, and final certification exam fee) for a qualified welding technology program.

Welding certificates we support are:

  • SMAW F3 and F4 (fillet welding)
  • SMAW G3 and G4 (groove welding)
  • empty line used for spacing

    (NOTE: The letter is the type of weld (F for fillet, G for groove) and the number is the position (3 for vertical up, and 4 for overhead).

There are many reputable Welding Technology programs in Utah. One program proximate to employees in Utah County is the Mountainland Technical College (MTEC). Another program for employees living in Davis County is the Davis Technical College (DATC). Details on these two programs follow the image, below.

MOUNTAINLAND TECHNICAL COLLEGE (MTEC)

In this program, you will learn about the more than 100 different processes that a welder can use to create the most effective type of weld based on the In the Welding Technology 900-hour certificate program, students receive hands-on safety, welding, and cutting instructions on various metals.

Instruction includes basic Oxy-Fuel Cutting (OFC), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW), and other thermal and mechanical cutting processes. Students also learn welding process-specific and shop safety practices, essentail print reading, and the proper uses and applications of AWS welding symbols.

Typically, the duration of the program is 16 months. Since the program is competency-based, some students complete it sooner. Class options are 2:45-5:45 pm or 6:00-9:00 pm. There are campuses are currently in Lehi and Orem with additional campuses coming to Payson and Heber City in 2025.
