The General Construction Carpentry Techniques program allows students to develop many of the skills needed to build a new home or structure or to renovate an old one.

Students learn to produce sketches, work from blueprints, develop building details, and assess construction sites. They are taught carpentry skills from base footings to framing, interior and exterior finishing, and fine finishing techniques.

The program also focuses on energy-efficient and green/sustainable construction practices and methods.

Building and installation techniques are practiced through hands-on construction activities and projects and students hone their skills on a major construction or renovation project in their final semester of study.

This program is offered at the Cornwall Campus.

Terribly unorganized program with staff that do not abide by the deadlines they post! Final grades may not be posted on time to begin next semester classes. Students are put on waitlists until the grades are submitted. Then they get penalized for missed deadlines to submit work if they start their class late - Even though it was not their fault!
Placement can be a worse nightmare because you can submit a placement request long before the deadline, by the time the placement staff decide to lpok at and accept or turn down your request, it is too late to start a new one and you lose the entire semester and start over!
The best one I heard was when my deadline to submit my police check was January 5th. It was submitted January 2nd. The placement staff stated we are not back into the school until January 12th so I won't have time to approve it before the deadline. Try again next semester!
RUN AWAY - THEY DONT CARE!
