College Diploma - Carpentry
If ever there was a hands-on career, it would be carpentry. In a stocked tool kit, a carpenter’s hands and keen mind are the most important. Constructing, erecting, installing, and repairing structures and fixtures for residential and light commercial use are all tasks that carpenters are needed for.
In the Carpentry (Co-op) diploma program, not only will students develop practical skills such as framing walls, siding and drywall installation, constructing wooden forms for pouring concrete, and erecting scaffolding, but they’ll also learn about the codes, standards, and quality concepts that apply to carpentry. Carpenters are experts in home and business improvement. They’re strategic thinkers and practitioners who are always in demand. Students enroll today to hone their skills and pursue a rewarding profession that allows them to play a key part in the evolution of ideas and dreams, seeing them through from concept to realization. The education students receive in the Carpentry Co-op Program is a great foundation to build on in pursuit of their goal to become a Red Seal Journeyperson Carpenter.
Some additional benefits of the Carpentry (Co-op) program:
- • 22 Week job placement (Paid)
- • Opportunity to challenge both Level 1 and Level 2 Apprenticeship exams.
