The CWB Association brings you a weekly podcast that connects to welding professionals around the world to share their passion and give you the right tips to stay on top of what’s happening in the welding industry.

When the sparks fly from Riley McElroy's welding torch, you can bet the warmth rivals her family's unconventional Christmas gatherings. As a seasoned welder from Calgary, Alberta, we wrap our discussion in a cozy blanket of holiday spirit, balancing it with tales from the welder's bench, where Riley reveals how deadlines heat up even in the chill of a Canadian winter. This episode takes an educational twist as Riley navigates her Apprenticeship journey with the support of the Boilermakers Union, welding together her journey to becoming a Red Seal Welder. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air as we talk about seasoned welders gathering to share job leads, a testament to the tight-knit fabric of the trade community, and the significance of mentorship, especially for women in the trades.
