I am an experienced welder and have been in the industry for over 6 years. I am 26 and would like to know if anyone knows how I can get some industry standard welding qualifications, without giving up my full time job, as I would like to further my career and create more opportunities for myself?

Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Im not so sure on how to go about that. But I have an idea. My boyfriend is 28 and has been doing plumbing. When he decides to necome certified he has to go to the union. Is there a union for welding? Cause if there is im sure you can get legit certification like that and be able to work partime, and still keep your job.
