Carpentry

The Carpentry program is designed to provide learners with the working knowledge and skills necessary to enter the carpentry area of the construction industry.

Students will be introduced to all aspects of the carpentry trade, and will acquire an understanding of how a building is structurally supported and protected from the elements. Through classroom, lab and on-site training, students will be introduced to the building layout, framing, roof system, interior and exterior finish. Safe operation of hand and power tools will be taught.

Students who complete the program can earn up to 1360 hours towards their apprenticeship requirement which in turn will lead them to the status of a Red Seal licensed carpenter.
