What can I expect from a welding career?
To anyone in the welding field who has chosen this field may I know a blessing or horror story? I want to know what I'm walking into.
I made the decision to attend college and become a skilled welder. I can do this in two year. Should I go to work right after that, or continue to get my BBA in Technology Management before I enter the workforce?
#weldingcareer During the time I did my Eagle Scout Service Project, an accessible bird blind for the Trail of Hope, Lyons, NY, took some welding and blacksmith classes I took at the Rochester Arc/Flame Center, and Technology classes in High School, I learned about the emergency shortage of American skilled welders. I also learned about 100% guaranteed jobs, good pay and career. I know I’m choosing a profession where I will be employed, make a good living, and fill a need in my community. But I wonder if I should begin working right after earning my AOS in Welding Technology at Alfred State, or if I should continue to earn my Bachelors degree in Technology Management, and ensure I have better career options in my field. Thanks for helping me out! ##welding #skilled-trades #career-counseling #career

I have been searching forskilled trade scholarships since October 2017. Very few exist despite workforce need in trades. Could anyone here share info about opportunities you've found?
Despite the critical shortage of skilled tradespeople in the American workforce, very few scholarships exist for students who want to attend vocational school or attend college for training in applied technologies. I know - I've been seeking scholarships since October 2017, for my Fall 2018 enrollment in Welding Technology at Alfred State. Maybe someone out there has more info! ##welding #scholarships #skilled-trades #financial-services
