Kudos to Ryan Deering. Ryan is doing a class this week for Standards of Training and Certification of Watchkeeping (STCW) and meeting the curriculum of the United States Coast Guard. This class allows him to teach welding to the Great Lakes Maritime Academy engine cadets. He has poured his teaching experience into this class and has been an invaluable asset to everyone who attends with him. Most of the other instructors are learning so much from him. This man loves what he does. Keep it up, Ryan! We do what we do for the students!
