Hear from 91̽ Cougars
“Jobs in the skilled trades are an in-demand career choice, and qualified professionals stand out to employers. Completing a low-cost program at 91̽ will help you not only open those doors to opportunity but boost your earning potential over a lifetime.”
Todd Vacek, Welding Instructor, 91̽
“Getting an education and learning a skill or trade is what will define your future. As a 33-year employee at the Byron nuclear plant, I have seen how learning can be equally important as on-the-job training and experience in leading to a well-compensated career. I enjoyed the introduction to ARC Welding at 91̽ so much that I went back for the second semester and will be attending the third semester this fall.”
Tracey Hulbert, student, 91̽
“I think participating in the welding program was a good choice for me because it allowed me to get a feel for what I would actually be doing in the field by learning new welding and computer-aided design processes. This was a really cool thing to experience because I was able to make blueprint sheets for different manufacturing parts that are actually used in the field. I highly recommend this program to anyone interested in the welding or CAD field, or if you’re just interested in learning about these careers. The classes are really fun, very informational, and you’ll have amazing and helpful instructors.”
