Overview
Our Framing and Carpentry Program is a practical training course offered in 10 weeks full-time or 18 weeks part-time, designed to equip participants with the skills needed for careers in framing and general contracting. The curriculum covers essential framing techniques for walls, roofs, and floors, along with blueprint reading, load calculations, and accurate material measurements. Participants also learn code compliance and safety standards, including building permits and inspections, while gaining hands-on experience through construction projects and structural design labs.
