what to ask before you pick a welding school

welding school is a great way to break into the trade. BUT... they all say (and most likely think) they are the best and have salesmen to convince you. here are just a few things to ask before you decide who to give your money to:
1 how much hood time (class room time does not count)?
2 how long is the program? 2 years is too long, unless...
3 welding varies by region where do you want to start your career?
