Workshops for Warriors: Taking back American manufacturing 'one veteran at a time'
Fox News
A San Diego school aims to fix two of America’s biggest problems with programs that retrain former military service members into the manufacturing workforce the country needs.
"It hit me like a ton of bricks," Hernan told Fox News. "There was nothing for these guys when they came back." Hernan and his wife sold everything they had to raise the funds to start his school, Workshops for Warriors. The goal was simple: Train vets over a four-month period to work in trade programs such as welding and manufacturing, allowing them to take on good jobs with decent salaries. Jobs pay an average of $60,000 a year.More Related News
