I was at a crossroads in my life and career, and I decided to do something I used to really enjoy when I was younger (now I'm 47), which is weld. I did some research and picked Crider Institute in Grain Valley. It's been an eye opening experience, way more detailed and in-depth than I imagined, and way more rewarding. I've had several job interviews and I'm going to pick the right job for me. Thank you Stan.
