There are far more than 5 types or processes of welding. Currently the American Welding Society (AWS) states that there are more than 80 different welding and joining processes. However, some of the common welding processes include shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), flux cored arc welding (FCAW), and oxyfuel gas welding (OFW).
structual steel is the widw flange column's and beam's as well as plate steel angle iron ect.. it falls under aws D1.1 welding code. reinforcement steel/reinforcing steel is the rebar, dba,(deformed bar anchor), hsa, (headed stud anchor) that is placed in concrete, floors, walls, footings, ect... it falls under aws D1.4 welding code

Any standards that are welding related in the United States are designated by the American Welding Society (AWS).
AWS classification refers to the American Welding Society's system for classifying and identifying various types of welding electrodes based on their composition and intended use. These classifications provide a standardized way to ensure that the appropriate electrode is used for specific welding applications.
AWS CWI CSWIP 3.1/3.2
A welding procedure specification is a detailed document that outlines the specific procedures and parameters to be followed for welding a particular material and joint configuration. It includes information on welding processes, filler metals, preheat and interpass temperatures, welding techniques, and inspection requirements. It serves as a guideline to ensure consistent and high-quality welding results.

Most post secondary schools that offer associate degrees in welding are sanctioned by the AWS and upon completion award an AWS certification. Some schools offer AWS certification after the first year. Locate a Technical or Vocational school in your area. I know of one secondary school that offers a chance to take the AWS test. There must be others. Remember secondary is high school. Post secondary can be community college or college.
MIG stands for metal inert gas. It is a non-standard term for gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and flux cored arc welding (FCAW) according to the American Welding Society (AWS). It is simply Metal Inert Gas.
