Nash receives DMACC welding certificate

Benjamin Nash, of Monroe, along with five others have successfully completed a Welding for Manufacturing class. The class was held at Vermeer Corporation in Pella utilizing their weld training lab. All received their MIG Welding for Manufacturing certificate and AWS Qualification in a recent ceremony held at the Vermeer Pavilion in Pella.

“The DMACC-Vermeer collaborative training solution is true workforce development,” said Rich Kacmarynski Vermeer welding recruiter and DMACC adjunct welding instructor.

“Many of the training participants had been on unemployment for a while and were discouraged. Through this program, they received encouragement and we are confident that they are now going to be successful in the workforce.”

The success of this Welding Certificate continues to inspire additional cohorts and new certificate programs.

The next cohort for MIG Welding for Manufacturing Certificate will start on Jan. 5.
