Hi guys,
I will start by simply introducing myself and giving you a background on my career in welding and fabrication. My name is Ivan and I am 20 years of age. I took 2 years of welding fabrication classes during high school. I love welding and I am always willing to learn more and more about welding.
After high school, I started helping my father in his medical business. I have also worked as a welder at a trucking company.
Now I think it's time to look at my career and think where I want to be in the next 5 years. Obviously, I want to do something in the welding industry. The reason that I am writing this here is that I want some advice from the experienced professionals on which way they would go if they were at my place.
I have been looking at moving to Toronto and attending welding school for their professional welding program. I have been setting aside money from the past 2 years and now I am at that point where I think I can do it.

I would need your suggestions on this.

Thank you for reading
