At CK Worldwide, we are deeply committed to supporting the education and advancement of welding professionals. Our dedication extends beyond providing top-tier TIG welding equipment to fostering the next generation of welders through various educational initiatives.
Technical Guides and Resources
We offer comprehensive technical guides and resources designed to assist both students and instructors in mastering TIG welding techniques. These materials are readily available to help enhance the learning experience and ensure a solid foundation in welding practices.
Scholarships
The Art Kleppen Family – CK Worldwide Scholarships, provided through the AWS Foundation, are a testament to our commitment to education. These scholarships offer two $2500 awards annually to deserving welding students. In 2023, we proudly awarded over $10,000 in scholarships, supporting the aspirations of future welders.
Facebook Community
Our vibrant Facebook community serves as a platform for welders of all levels to share knowledge, seek advice, and connect with peers. This community is an invaluable resource for ongoing learning and support, fostering a collaborative environment for continuous improvement.
Dedication by Founder Art Kleppen
In a remarkable gesture of dedication to education, our founder, Art Kleppen, has pledged all royalties from CK Worldwide to the AWS Foundation. This commitment ensures that these funds will be used to further support educational initiatives, providing more opportunities for aspiring welders.
Educational Discounts
To support welding instructors and educational programs, CK Worldwide offers significant product discounts to colleges, vocational schools, and union training programs. These discounts, which were increased as of March 1st, help offset the costs of training programs while providing access to the highest quality TIG welding equipment.
