Cabinet Making Technician

Our Program

Located at the Humber Centre for Trades & Technology (see map at humber.ca/maps), our Cabinet Making certificate program provides you with the knowledge and skills to construct cabinets and fine furniture using both traditional recognized trade practices, as well as computer-based technologies. Students will complete a series of woodworking projects, which explore various types of joinery and construction techniques using hand tools, portable power tools, and stationary machines. Time management skills and the ability to work to a deadline are developed throughout the program.

Woodworking classes also focus on: verbal and written communication, critical thinking, problem solving, mathematics, and interpersonal/teamwork skills.

Graduates of this program will be able to produce shop drawings, calculate material lists, operate woodworking machinery safely and also assemble and apply a finish to basic cabinetry or furniture.

Our Advisory Committee of industry professionals meet annually to review our curriculum and ensure that students are receiving relevant training to prepare them for work in a range of woodworking-related fields.
