This 6-month program is an introduction to the joinery trade. Theory and practice is offered to allow students to build numerous projects including solid wood furniture, cabinets, kitchen cabinets, jigs and fixtures, etc.
Training prepares students for entry-level employment in the joinery trade. Basic theory and related information along with hands-on shop practice enable students to become competent in basic interior woodworking tasks. Upon successful completion of the program, many students choose to pursue a formal trades qualification by seeking employment as an apprentice.
Students spend approximately 70% of their time building various projects in the shop. The remainder of the time is classroom theory. Graduates will receive credit for first year apprenticeship technical training.
