How To Get Into The Welding Trade

Did you know we're facing a massive challenge? We're on a mission to recruit 360,000 new welders by 2027.

That's a whopping 90,000 exciting welding opportunities waiting to be seized every year between 2023-2027.

💪 But here's the twist - only 5% of these skilled warriors are women. It's time to break stereotypes and pave the way for a more diverse welding community!

⚠️ Brace yourself! Over 155,000 seasoned welders are on the verge of retirement.

The torch is passing, and we need the next generation to rise to the occasion.

🚀 Join us for a groundbreaking episode where we've got two powerhouses in the welding realm:

🌟 Joe Young, Senior Manager of Workforce Development at AWS Foundation, bringing invaluable insights.

🔥 Matt Scott, the Welding Instructor from Portland Community College, sharing his expertise and passion for the craft.
