“6 months ago getting to travel and do something I love was just a dream. The certifications, bulletproof resume and one-on-one training I received from instructors who were just as motivated as I was pushed me hard to make my dream a reality. Without a doubt in my mind I can say KWI made me the welder I am today.”
