Podcast Description

What if the skills you learned on the ice could help you excel in the world of welding? Join us as we chat with Gabe Scigliano, a former competitive hockey player from Calgary, who successfully transitioned to a career in welding and pipe fitting. Gabe shares how an unexpected conversation led him down this new path, revealing the cultural differences he encountered between the white-collar vibe of Calgary and the blue-collar spirit of Edmonton. Through his experiences, Gabe offers a unique perspective on Alberta's workforce dynamics and the fulfillment he found in the trades after overcoming initial resistance from his family. Join us for an engaging conversation about the Boilermakers, the path to becoming a journeyman, and the importance of government-funded programs like the Filling the Gap Pressure Welding Training Program.
