Course Summary

On this course you willdevelop your practical skills in carpentry or joinery, and improve your knowledge of the construction industry in general. You improve practical skills e.g. how to carry out first and second fixing, how to build a timber frame structure, and how to erect structural carcasses. You will have the opportunity to demonstrate these skills by building a model in one of our large modern workshop areas. You will also learn how to use site equipment for example to set up and operate a circular saw.
