    Skills that help veterans return to work and rebuild their lives

    I took a course in Sumy. Now I work as a welder at an enterprise. I finally feel myself in the profession.
    After the injury, my hands did not respond well. But the instructors at the school were very understanding. I learnt to weld from scratch.
    I am originally from Trostianets. Studying in Sumy gave me a new profession. Now I work part-time in a workshop, welding fences and gates.
    I did not believe that at the age of 45 I would learn something again. But it worked out. I do minor welding work for neighbours in Sumy.
    It was convenient to study in Sumy - it was close to home. Now I work in a brigade. The salary is stable, and I have my hands full.
    After rehabilitation, I was looking for something to do. I took a course in Sumy, tried it and got hooked. I make handrails to order.
    I live in Bilopillia. I went to school every day. It was hard, but worth it. Now I make gates and sheds on a freelance basis.
    Before the war, he worked at a sawmill. Now I am a welder. The school gave me not just skills but also confidence.
    There is a demand for such services in Sumy, especially in the private sector. After the training, I already have several regular clients.
    I studied in Sumy, the conditions were good. I appreciate the practice the most - they didn't give me lectures, but put the tool in my hands.
    My son brought me. I couldn't stand for long, but the instructors helped me find a pace that was manageable. Everything is real.
    My friends suggested that I go to WEYS for training. After three weeks, I was already holding the electrode with confidence. I do welding in the private sector.
    The school helped change the course of my life. I had no idea how to cook before, and now I have contracts in the district.
    He lost his job because of the war. Thanks to his studies in Sumy, he mastered his profession and started working in construction.
    I am an IDP, but in Sumy I found support and a new profession. The school gave me concrete knowledge and a way forward.
    Education in Sumy was free. After graduation, WEYS helped me find a job. Now I work steadily at the company.
    I'm from Konotop, and after the course I stayed in Sumy - there are people to cook for here. My neighbours are already passing my number on to each other.
    It was my first experience of working with metal. The instructors are very patient. I took the course in Sumy.
    After being injured, I lost the meaning of my previous job. Here in Sumy I found something else - I can create something with my hands again.
    I am grateful to the school of welders in Sumy. It's more than a course - it's a return to dignity.
