American Welding Society

We’re proud to recognize the incredible achievement of our students who have successfully passed their American Welding Society (AWS) Welding Certification exams! 💪⚙️

These industry-recognized credentials reflect not only the students’ technical skill and dedication, but also the strength and excellence of our MCHS welding program. AWS certifications are nationally and internationally respected — a true game-changer that signals to employers a standardized level of welding competency.

This major milestone opens doors to careers in construction, manufacturing, shipbuilding, oil & gas, aerospace, and more. Whether entering the workforce or pursuing further training, these students are ready for what’s next.
