Lunch & Learn Training

Supporting the Next Generation of Welding Professionals

At WJMG, our goal is to support welders who have the drive, mindset, and personal commitment to advance their careers.

Through technical training and professional development, we help welders prepare to take on greater responsibility and accountability while producing quality welded products correctly the first time.

Continued education can equip welding professionals to pursue essential industry roles, including:

• Leaders and foremen
• Estimators and supervisors
• Superintendents
• Vice presidents and presidents
• Business owners
