Episode 168 with Allison Zerr and Max Ceron

The CWB Association Welding Podcast

10-04-2024 • 1 hr 13 mins

The CWB Association brings you a weekly podcast that connects to welding professionals around the world and unrepresented communities as we continue to strive for a more diverse workforce. Join us as we celebrate National Volunteer Month to showcase the incredible contributions of our Chapter Executives from across Canada and globally.

When Allison Zerr swapped her accounting books for a welder's mask, little did she know she'd be igniting a trail for women in the trades. This episode brings you the remarkable journey of Allison, from her small-town roots to leading the Women in Trades program, where she unwraps the challenges she faced, the stereotypes she shattered, and the ceilings she broke – not just glass, but steel too. Her story isn't just about defying odds; it's a beacon for anyone who's ever felt the tug to take the road less traveled in their career.
