CWB Group to host its 9th annual Educators Conference on June 1st and 2nd, 2021

April 6, 2021

Our virtual event themed Innovative Discoveries and Advancements in Welding Education is intended for secondary and post-secondary educators 

Milton, ON- It is a great pleasure to cordially invite all educators to our annual Educators Conference and continue the momentum from our 2019 face-to-face event on a virtual platform. For over 70 years, the CWB Group has helped create and shape the welding industry in Canada and abroad. We pride ourselves in being innovative in our services and highly responsive to client needs which is why we host this informational event every year. With such a dire shortage in Canada's skilled trades, we provide welding and fabrication professionals with a platform to enjoy knowledgeable speakers within informative topic sessions.

The CWB Group is the source of excellence in welding, and we are committed to sharing our knowledge and passion for the industry. We are excited to announce that we will be hosting this 2-day virtual conference on an easy-to-use and interactive platform. Event dates are June 1st and 2nd, 2021, and registration is already open! Visit https://www.cwbgroup.org/industry-support/educators-conference-2021 to sign up to secure a spot today.

You will receive an email with details on how to sign-in closer to the event. Our event will provide education professionals with a combination of extraordinary convenience, technical presentations, networking opportunities, and content relevant to current industry trends at no cost to attend. We're also happy to announce that, as always, attendees will be able to participate in a live virtual expo with exhibits from our sponsors where you can connect with suppliers as you would during our live events. 

“We have lived through a period in time that will surely go down in history. In navigating this unique situation, we have remained focused on our overarching purpose, and our commitment to the industry is unwavering. Through constant communication with our stakeholders, we have learned, evolved, and become more efficient in delivering an outstanding client experience, and we promise to continue doing so moving forward. With that said, we have used our many learnings to revamp the way we deliver the Educator's Conference this year. Though we would love to see you all in person, the current global situation doesn't allow it, so this year's conference will be hosted on our easy-to-use virtual platform. If you have attended past events, you know that our virtual events have garnered a positive response, with attendees enjoying the interactive experience we have created. We are thrilled to be partnering with industry professionals that will inform and educate attendees on the latest innovations in the industry and discuss how companies across the world have adapted to the rapid changes in the workplace. We hope you allow us to continue providing an exceptional client experience in 2021, and we are excited for what this year brings for the welding sector," said Michael Stewart, CFO.

We hope to see you at the event and, until then, stay safe. Please visit the event website HERE.
