What do you mean by apprenticeship training?

  • An apprentice is someone who is learning a trade by working under the guidance of skilled workers called journeymen. It's on-the-job training. You earn while you learn and are paid a wage from the first day you’re hired by a contractor.
  • To make a career in any facet of the carpentry trade requires the knowledge of how to perform these tasks safely, proficiently, and correctly.
  • Carpentry is a skill which historically has been handed down from one skilled craftsman to the next. History has proven that knowledge of only one limited aspect of the trade is never enough.
  • By completing the 4,000 to 8,000 hours of on-the-job training “work experience” required to complete the apprenticeship program and become a journeyman, you will be among the best, most well trained, well rounded, and most desirable candidates available for employment in this industry.
