Workshop for Warriors 16-week program offers veterans classes in CNC machining and welding/fabrication.
ORS Nasco announced its support of Workshops for Warriors, a nonprofit school that trains, certifies and helps place veterans, Wounded Warriors and transitioning service members into advanced manufacturing careers.
Founded in 2008 and recognized as the leader in advanced manufacturing training for veterans in the United States, Workshop for Warriors is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit school that offers classes in CNC machining and welding/fabrication. The 16-week program is a nationally scalable and repeatable model that enables veterans and transitioning service members to overcome employment obstacles and enter lucrative, advanced manufacturing careers as welders and machinists.
Upon completion of the classroom and hands-on training, students earn nationally-recognized credentials from top industry organizations such as the National Institute for Metalworking Skills and the American Welding Society.
“Entering as a Tier I Sponsor in our Pride In Partnership program is a progressive way for ORS Nasco to demonstrate their commitment to social responsibility and support our school,” said Lyle Palm, the dean of the welding program at Workshops for Warriors.
