The CWB Welding Foundation is proud to support students across Canada on their educational journey in the skilled trades — focusing on welding engineering and advanced materials joining technologies programs. For over a decade, we’ve proudly provided financial support that has broken down barriers and bridged gaps to ensure success for students interested in pursuing welding in Canada. Our academic awards and bursaries promote and encourage excellence and help students realize their full potential as they follow their dreams.
We’re proud to work with leading post-secondary educational institutions across Canada by providing financial assistance. These awards were established because we believe all students who wish to pursue welding as a career have the opportunity to do so without needing to worry about monetary barriers.
