Accessibility for women. Isnt Welding a tough field for women to break into?
No! Women are more than capable of contributing to the welding industry and old-fashioned stereotypes are on their way out! There is nothing about welding that excludes women from participation. In fact, Welding instructor, George Rodriguez, points out that many of his female students have better hand-eye coordination and attention to detail (two very important skills to have in welding) than their male counterparts. Find out more about why welding could be a great career for you through El Camino Colleges Women in Industry and Technology program.
