From CTE Welding Class to Work-Based Learning: Landon Sharp Gains Real-world Experience -
Landon Sharp, a second-year CTE welding student at Harrison High School, gains hands-on experience in his work-based learning position at Smith Truck Body. Specializing in upfitting commercial trucks with Hooklifts and Rolloffs to Flatbeds, Smith offers wetline hydraulic kits, repair, and refurbishment for diverse models.
As an installation mechanic, Landon reflects on applying skills from the CTE welding class, stating, "I use many of the skills I gained in my welding class. Everything I practiced with MIG welding there, I put into action here." He adds, "At Smith, I am learning even more about welding, particularly overhead welding and understanding the dos and don'ts in specific situations."
Landon originally enrolled in the CTE welding class because he was uncertain about his career path. He recalls, "I didn't know what I wanted to do, and honestly, I didn't want to be in school. Welding sounded fun, so I decided to give it a try," and it turned out to be something he enjoyed. This led him to sign up for a second year at CTE.
Working at Smith Truck Body, Landon does a bit of everything—electronics, hydraulics, welding, and fabrication. When asked about what he's learned, Landon says, "I've picked up electrical skills like wiring lights and entire towers. Also, I know about hydraulics and how to operate hoists. Working here is more than just welding and I've learned so many new skills I wouldn’t have gotten without this opportunity."
For future CTE welding students, Landon recommends trying work-based learning (WBL) when Welding Instructors Phil and Nick offer it. “This opportunity will help you understand the difference between practicing in a lab with classmates and the actual world” he said. “"It's more than just assignments from Phil and Nick – it's about being in the field, learning from experienced people in the industry."
When asked about his plans after high school, Landon said he intends to stay and gain more experience at Smith Truck Body. However, he envisions transitioning into the pipeline industry as a long-term goal.
Landon's success shows how CTE programs can turn students into skilled professionals. His story is an inspiration for other students interested in welding, and it shows how CTE education can lead to promising careers. CTE "Its Working!"
