Hi all, I commented this on a post and felt it was valuable to share across the board.
The post was pertaining to welders being laid off during this slow time because of the economy, tariffs all the different things that are slowing industry down right now... This may not be for everyone. Whether you go into engineering technology or go back to welding the tangible, it will expand your knowledge and ability to produce quality. Learning more process applications and controls can only make you better. AND Why not spend some down time enhancing your skills.
Original comment below.
Time to expand your skills... I highly recommend the 3-year welding engineering technology programs at Conestoga College. With whatever training you have you might be able to get exempt from first year with your experience. Don't quote me but the best part about the 3-year technology programs are that your skill in the welding industry expands vastly from the working directly with an engineer as a technologist to being the engineer in your job title. Or being a weld supervisor, Inspector, foreman, lead hand, sales, r&d, so many opportunities. People coming out of these programs are being scooped up before the classes are finished and getting work. They have the ability and skill to be the people welding but they also have pretty much everything else in between the tangible application to the design and engineering. I've even heard of some people finding funding that can cover some of the costs if not all for the programs. Everyone is unique and would have to go and start digging into find their paths.
Added➡️This type of training enhancement can help put you anywhere you want to be in industry. Pretty much give you the ability to apply for almost any welding career job out there.
