Senior Welding students, Austin VanCamp (Left, TC) and Peyton Lowther (Right, TC) are pictured with welding instructor, Mike Sims. Both students successfully passed their SWAW certification.
Several AM Welding students completed their OSHA 10 certification! Many unions and businesses require their employee to earn their OHSA 10. So, by completing this course and earning this certification during high school, students who plan to directly enter the workforce are already one step ahead!
