Any engineering/manufacturing men here? (self.MGTOW)

NaughtyFred が 投稿

I have an opportunity to do a 6 month course of learning manufacturing skills, the course covers bench fitting, sheet metal, welding, foundry engineering and composites. At the end I gain an industrially accredited qualification (low level but vocational).

Would this train me sufficiently to get a job?

They can never take your education from you.

I don't know but it sounds great. 6 months ? why not ?

Yes. Especially the welding.

Yeah, lots of good buzzwords there. Not sure if it alone will get you a job, but it definitely seems worthwhile knowledge.

It's solid "base" knowledge that will potentially benefit you in the future in any number of possible positions.

But... (you knew there was going to be a "but" right?) training is often of significantly LESS value than people imagine; what really matters when it comes to those fields is actual hands-on experience.

Now that doesn't mean you shouldn't do the training... just don't fall into the trap of thinking that the "training" coursework will be sufficient; do EVERYTHING you can to leverage yourself into some "internship" position at a real company that is doing real production... even if you're just being a "gopher" and/or floor sweeper, get something on your resume that shows you've worked at a REAL firm. That will put you miles ahead of the majority of your classmates.
