Curriculum

Our comprehensive 6-month ACTT Woodwork & Joinery Program equips you with essential skills in woodworking and carpentry. The program kicks off with a solid foundation month, covering site preparation, tool usage, and occupational health & safety. The next four months focuses on specialization, where you will master joint work, furniture making, and finishing techniques.

We integrate modern technology with Computer-Aided Design (CAD) training to ensure precision and efficiency in your projects. Hands-on learning includes everything from wood preparation to artifact design and material handling. Business skills such as customer service, marketing, and financial management are also emphasized during the first month. The final month places you in a real-world apprenticeship, honing your workplace behavior and competencies. This framework is designed to produce highly skilled and market-ready woodwork and joinery professionals.
