Ready, Set, WELD! Weld Shop Funding Available!

The CWB Welding Foundation will seek ways to engage students at the Elementary School level in the opportunities that exist in the welding industry. This will ensure that elementary school students are exposed to these opportunities prior to course selection for high school, which typically is the first opportunity students have for hands-on welding instruction.

Secondary students who wish to pursue an apprenticeship or post-secondary education in welding are invited to apply through our student awards program. In addition, we provide all secondary schools in Canada with personal protective equipment and secondary educators with CWB Acorn curriculum at no charge.  Capital, equipment, and consumables support is provided as per program guidelines to qualifying applicants as per funding availability

The CWB Welding Foundation provides support through student awards for Secondary School students to attend post-secondary studies in welding. The Foundation encourages students to continue their studies and re-apply each year of their post-secondary welding education. Our goal is to ensure that students are given the necessary support to complete their programs and move towards apprenticeship or employment in the welding trade.
