Can't recommend this school enough! Great school for anyone wanting to learn a true blue collar trade. I've seen lot of kids come through who've never touched a welder and come out with the best looking welds. Great instructors with a lot of patience and experience. Great atmosphere, and real life experience to get your ready for the job. Highly recommend western welding academy to anyone looking into learning how to weld.

Great school with amazing instructors, 3rd shift for life? They put my picture up?

My recommendation for Western Welding Academy is coming from a slightly different perspective. My son is who actually attended the school. We began the application process before the end of his junior year of high school. Extremely easy to navigate. Communications with WWA for the next year came via email for the most part. Information was readily available for payment and housing guidance. Within 2 weeks of high school graduation, he headed 1500 miles from home to start school. While he requested first shift, he was assigned to 3rd shift. It turns out 3rd shift was exactly what my son needed. Not only did the night shift educate, encourage & nurture his welding skills, they demonstrated work skills, promoted leadership and helped develop him to be the hard working, reliable & accomplished employee he is today. If you are a parent reading this • send your student. WWA was the best decision for him and we have zero regrets. We can never thank the 3rd shift men enough • above & beyond the expectations.

I had a great experience at WWA and would recommend you go if wanting to pursue welding as a career. I went to school with a bunch of great people and great instructors who want to help to make you the the best hand you can be if you’re willing to put in the work. I started working a few weeks after I got out and it’s been uphill ever since.

Great Tour for the school. Had a great welding competition. Lots of great prizes. Everyone that works there seems really knowledgeable. It's a long way from NC. Would be a great school for anyone looking to get into welding and learning the trade. Thanks again for everything y'all done for us...
