The RVTC Carpentry Program is ideal for the individual who wants to learn more about carpentry and construction. Complete several projects using the school’s first-rate tools and equipment. Every year, we even build a house right here in our massive workshop.
Students learn to build, design, and gain the skills needed for a career in carpentry. They start by building sheds and other small projects. They create materials lists, research vendors, and order what they need to build a house. They discover the theory and practice of construction as a profession. Construction projects through hands-on experiential learning are the focus of the work in carpentry. Students also develop leadership skills through the local SkillsUSA Chapter and participate in local, state, regional, and national activities. Students may become nationally credentialed through National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER). In the second year, students have an opportunity to refine their skills by building a full-sized house right in the lab.
This program includes or prepares for the following credential(s): National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) - Construction Core.
