March 27, 2020

Milton, Ontario- At a time when in-class instruction is an impossible feat, and our daily education involves learning new concepts such as 鈥渟ocial-distancing鈥 and 鈥渇lattening the curve,鈥 it is difficult to think of anything other than the rapid spread of COVID-19. At the 阴APP导航, however, we are committed to our students鈥 welding education and are working tirelessly to make sure that the academic progress of our students is not affected due to the current state of events. As announced earlier last week, we are taking significant steps to increase student access to high-quality education and promoting digital learning. 听

In addition to offering the Health and Safety course for free, CWB Education is excited to announce that we have added the following list of online courses to the roster with more to follow over the next few weeks. We understand that uncertainty and ambiguity can be nerve-racking, especially when one鈥檚 future is at stake, and we want to assure you that we are doing all that we can to help our students stay ahead of the game.

鈥淒uring this period of isolation and physical distancing, we are launching a series of free online courses designed to keep our customers and team members connected with the goal of providing continuous learning opportunities,鈥 shared Darcy Yantz, Manager of CWB Education. 鈥淲e want to make sure that we give them the correct tools and resources without the burden of fees so that they鈥檙e free to learn the skills and fluency that they need to progress beyond the classroom.鈥
