Posted:

Do you enjoy working with your hands, or building and fixing things? If so, our Carpentry Technology program could be just what you’re looking for.

About the Program

Our Carpentry Technology (CARP) program is designed to provide you with entry-level knowledge and hands-on skills that will put you on a path toward a meaningful and rewarding career in the building and construction industry. Upon completion of our CARP program, you’ll be ready to enter the Carpenters Apprenticeship Program, which is the most common way to enter the carpentry field.

The classroom hours you complete in this program also count towards your journey worker hours. In addition to learning carpentry skills, our program also focuses on personal and professional health, fitness, and safety practices required for building and construction occupations.

The class will be held in-person and, depending on lab space, may be split into two groups to meet the six-feet social distancing requirements. You will be responsible to come to campus during your assigned lab time.

Your instructor will provide a list of tools, books, etc. during the first week of the semester.

Be sure to attend the first day of instruction for information on attire, tools, and books that will be required. Instructors take attendance at the beginning of class, so please be on time.  If you are absent or tardy, please email your instructors to schedule time to make up the work missed.
