Hello,
To acquire the essential theoretical knowledge and basic hands-on skills, you'll probably need to enroll in courses via your high school's technical program.
Institutions such as AWS, renowned technical schools, provide a wide range of seminars and courses tailored to your career stage and chosen path.
Remember, the most lucrative welding jobs include Pipe welders, Tube welders, Rig welders, Underwater welders, and Combo welders. The welding method and industry you choose to specialize in significantly impact your earnings.
I hope this helps.
