On February 13th SLEEGERS visited the Fanshawe Welding Class at the St. Thomas/Elgin Regional Campus. Members of our production team described their paths to their profession and what students could expect if they were working at SLEEGERS as welders. The students were then invited to visit our SLEEGERS facility in March.

On March 3rd, we welcomed the class for a tour of our production area and finished off the day with lunch and a fun welding competition. We hope through this partnership with Fanshawe St. Thomas, to encourage our welding artisans of the future to continue to pursue their passion.

SLEEGERS had a busy day at the Fanshawe Career Fair on March 8th.  There were 170 employers in attendance and 50 on a wait list.  It was a popular event! 

Our team met with students non-stop from 10am-2pm. We went in with our main goal of meeting Welding and Engineering students and created specific brochures for those opportunities; however, we also spoke with many Supply Chain Management students and Welding and Fabrication students interested in Summer and future Co-Op opportunities. It was a remarkably successful day.
