Thank you all for your responses to my last post inquiring about welding. I have more questions...ya'all cool with that?
In my last post I'd mentioned that I had learned that a journeyman welder was 3yrs of schooling. What I hadn't realised, and no one mentioned, is that you have to apprentice for those 3yrs. I've also learnmed that apprenticeships are rarely advertised and usually found out by word of mouth.
Questions:
Does anyone know if there is some sort of preliminary schooling for welding that I'd need to take before embarking on this 3yr deal, without an apprenticeship? Just a community college class or something? It seems odd that I would seek employment for an apprenticeship without any education, ya know? I know-dumb question...but still.
Do anyone have any advise on seeking apprenticeship?
Thank you again........and again.
