SUMMARY:MIG Welding 101 NFK with Beau (16+)
DESCRIPTION:Learn the basics of MIG Welding in this introductory class.\nThis workshop is for any DIY person who can work a hot-glue gun and is ready to move to metal work with a basic wire-feed or MIG (Metal inert gas) welder. During this 2-hour workshop\, we speak about the different types of consumer welding (MIG\, TIG\, Arc)\, focusing on the easiest style which is wire-fed/MIG\, amperage vs voltage\, temperature vs wire-flow\, proper speed and flow techniques\, penetration vs burn through\, 110v vs 220v\, consumer vs professional\, and so on. This workshop aims to get you comfortable and secure enough to get hands-on creative experience\, then ready for custom fabrication and art creation in later workshops. Students will feel safe enough to start shopping after for a welder and supplies\, or to rent one for their projects. In this hands-on workshop\, participants will leave with a fun\, takeaway project.\nThis is a basic demonstration and hands-on steel welding for hobbyists. Required: Closed-toe shoes (no flops)\, long pants (no shorts)\, long sleeve cotton shirt or jacket that can take small sparks\, open mind\, open ears\, comfy shoes. Gloves are provided but it is preferred that you bring your own for fit- Goatskin or Deerskin gloves work well.Disclaimer:This is not a class to earn certifications. This class is purely a hands-on experience to provide access to a welder and the basics of how it works. Safe practices should always precede caution and participants attend at their own risk.\nDuration: 2 Hours\n(All materials included)

SUMMARY:The Network: Direct Employer Access (Newport News)
DESCRIPTION:Stop applying online. Start shaking hands. Bypass the resume “black hole.” Meet vetted hiring managers who know what your clearance is worth\nThe Algorithm Can’t Hire You. We Can.\nThe Problem: You spend hours tailoring your resume. You submit it to an online portal. You wait. You hear nothing. The “Black Hole” of online applications is the enemy of a fast transition.\nThe Solution: The Network is your bypass. We cut the red tape and put you in the room with the people who actually sign the offer letters.\nThis isn’t a “job fair” where you collect brochures. This is a tactical access point to the 757’s most aggressive military-hiring companies. We have vetted every employer in the room. They aren’t here to tell you to “apply on the website”—they are here to find their next team leader.\nWho Should Attend:\nTransitioning Service Members: Who are tired of the waiting game.\nMilitary Spouses: Looking for employers who understand the PCS lifestyle.\nVeterans: Ready to level up from their current civilian role.\nYour Rules of Engagement:\nBring Resumes if you have them BUT no biggie if you don’t.\nBe Social: No stress\, take your 30 seconds to tell them who you are. Make it count. Learn who they are and what they’re looking for. If it’s not you\, how you can help.\nThe job market is all about who you know. Come know the right people.\nIf you have any additional questions\, please do not hesitate to contact us:\nPhone: 757-807-0423\nEmail: militarycommunity@theworkforcecouncil.org\nThis event and the services provided herein at the Hampton Roads Veterans Employment Centers are funded through 25% or $199\,576 through the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act and 75% or $580\,391 through nonfederal sources.
