Description
The Carpentry and Joinery Level 3 course will develop your knowledge of Carpentry and Joinery so that you can embark on a rewarding career or maybe you are already working in a related field and want to improve your career prospects, then this is the course for you.
Carpentry is a skilled trade in which the primary work performed is the use of wood to construct items as large as buildings and as small as desk drawers.
On completion of this course, you will be able to transform wood into saleable items, from tables to rocking-horses. You will also understand the different types of timber and the process involved preparing it for use.
There is a high demand for Carpenters at the moment and as a Carpenter you will enjoy a relatively high income, meeting the demand for uniquely produced objects.
