Ways to specialize as a welding/electrician apprentice?

Is there any specialization that you wished they had learned earlier in your career or still want to learn. I'm also wondering about the average work conditions and hours, if they are heinous or relaxed. I am also wondering about upward or lateral mobility, the prospects of advancing to a more managerial role or some other adjacent or higher paying job.

Newbie to welding, is there any advice for someone interested in advanced training?

Hello, I am a newly sprouted seedling in welding, and I am interested in potentially working on boilers or engines. Can anyone offer advice in regards to how I could learn the techniques for this line of work? I am studying at the Northlands Job Corps Center and intend to go into the welding program. Provided I am not derailed or find another option, I also plan to do their Advanced Training. If anyone welds pieces for boilers or engines, what's the work like? Is it fulfilling and does it engage any creative centers? Thank you for your time.
