Weiler is proud to support Workshops for Warriors who provides veterans and transitioning services members with training and certification for careers in welding, machining, and fabrication at no cost to the veteran. Through the support of Weiler and others, Workshops for Warriors will be able to deepen its impact by building a new facility that will accommodate an additional 500 students every year. The new facility will be a haven for advanced manufacturing learning, and a place where veterans like Alicia can successfully transition into civilian life. Read the full press release.

“I was starting to feel the stress of being unemployed. Finally, I recognized that because I didn’t have any experience as an engineer, I needed something else to fill the gap. That something else was the certifications and the skills to prove my worth. That’s what I got from Workshops for Warriors.” More

“I definitely made the right decision to come to Workshops for Warriors. I’m learning the proper way to do the job. It was a really great experience.” More

Workshops for Warriors does not receive any federal, state, or local government funding and relies on private donations to train their students and transition them into advanced manufacturing careers.

“Workshops for Warriors understands the transition period people go through when they leave the military. Having people who understand and who take that into consideration allows you to succeed.”  More
