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.
๐ช 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!
โ ๏ธ 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.
