Welding

When we think about welding, we often don't realize how this industry impacts the world around us. Welding is an essential component of many industries such as the automotive industry, the construction industry, the aviation industry, and more. Without this form of metal work, so many things, including many buildings, gates, and fences, small kitchen appliances, vehicles - and even space travel - would not exist.

​

70 percent of all manufactured products are made with the skills of welders. This data in and of itself is solid evidence of welding's importance to our country's economic health, keeping the United States strong both domestically and internationally.

 

There are many studies that make a direct connection between welding and economic strength will continue to keep educated welders in high demand.
