Hi Addy,
It's phantastic that you are interested in welding. You can find out about welding certifications and career paths from professional societies like the American Welding Society.
You can get training at many Community Colleges, welding schools or by doing an apprenticeship with a company.
Your first step could be to find out which local Community Colleges or welding schools offers welding classes.
You can also contact local companies who employ welders to see if you could get into an apprenticeship and which training and certifications they require when they hire.
I hope this helps! All the best to you!
