Keep this in mind, if you're good at what you do, you'll keep your job. Ticket or no ticket. This is of course if the company you work for is reputable.

I have seen many RFQ's where clients are demanding proof of education for all employees. Trades, Engineers, Accountants etc.
People can only be swept under the rug for so long once you get audited by the clients semi regularly.

I agree with your last two posts. Your education is very important, and in the end it will determine who stays and who goes.
What I was trying to get at was, most companies will find a way to hold on to a "valuable" employee. I think we can both agree that if a client is demanding proof of education, they're looking at the majority.

I got my red steel fab and B pressure welding, from bcit. The first year was learning read drawings, trig revue and basic line development, for forming plate.
All good skills to have, and its only 5 weeks.
