Welding Industry Information Session
Your Input Will Help Build the Next Generation of Welders
Rhode Island manufacturers know better than anyone what today’s welding workforce needs. That’s why Polaris MEP, CCRI, and Senesco Marine are bringing industry together to review and help shape a new welding training program before it’s launched.
Join us for a collaborative information session where you’ll review the proposed curriculum, discuss the skills your business needs most, and provide direct feedback to help ensure graduates are prepared for real manufacturing jobs in Rhode Island.
Whether you’re actively hiring welders today or planning for future workforce needs, your perspective is essential.
What We’ll Cover:
- An overview of the new pilot Welding Program
- Review of the proposed curriculum
- Discussion of current and future workforce needs
- Opportunity to provide industry feedback before the program launches
- Next steps for employer engagement and talent placement
This isn’t a presentation—it’s a conversation.
Your input will help ensure the curriculum reflects the realities of today’s manufacturing environment and prepares students for the skills employers are actually looking for.
Lunch will be provided for attendees joining us in person.
