If the smell of Home Depot brings a smile to your face, and you know there’s no better feeling than a freshly sanded piece of lumber, then Carpentry’s the program for you. You’ll l earn skills like house framing, roofing, siding and stair building, and actually work on constructing a house from the ground up. If you’re ready to build, it’s time to get out of the classroom and into the workshop.
Program Description
Each year, active learning experience includes masonry, framing, roofing, and siding as students build sheds for actual clients. Students also learn to safely operate hand and power tools.
There is some work on plan and blueprint reading as well as learning the meaning of symbols and building specifications.
After learning fundamentals in the workshop, students put their new skills to use and actually build a house from scratch. Every year a finished house is sold.
From the ground up, this class will teach you the full scope of the construction industry.
