Here are some testimonials from our clients:
The Maritime training center has contributed everything to my entry and advancement in the skilled trade field of metal fabricating and welding. Since my first class at AIDT ive been able to provide emloyers with the skills they are looking for structurally. 
First, I would like to thank each and everyone that shared this life changing event with me. Who have giving me the knowledge to better my life. It has been such a great experience that I will never forget. I appreciate the opportunity that had been giving to me. This has been a life changing career for me.
I wanted to send this to let you know that I really appreciate you allowing me into this class 
Hello, I am taking the time to write this email because I wanted to express my feelings about my AIDT program. It was beyond awesome, I do not know any other training facility that you could attend for 15 weeks and be able to come out making more than double minimum wage and its free all you have to so is show up. I feel the people that didn't get a job didn't push theirselves hard enough and didn't take the opportunity to advance their skills. I noticed people tried harder in the last two weeks but it was too late. David, Sykes and myself spent our own time trying to help them and they would listen but as soon as you walk away they would go back to bad habits. The point I am trying to get across is I feel y'all should have a deadline, for instance night class is 15 weeks and I feel if they do not show improvement by week 12 I feel that they should be asked to leave the class because they are wasting time, money, material and they are told the same thing over and over again but still don't improve or try to improve. That is my only input that I would have. Welding isn't for everyone, if you don't get it, you don't get it but I loved the class, all the instructors and I am looking forward to seeing you again in the future to advance my skills. 
I just want to send you my gratitude for you running a great program at AIDT and for teaching me the basics of welding and changing my life to where I am wanted in my field as a welder and if it wasn't for people like you and every one at AIDT I would still be working a dead in job barely getting by.
