CARPENTRY (CAR)
(Wallace Campus)
The Carpentry program is designed to provide the student with knowledge and skills for employment as a framer or basic carpenter in the residential and/or commercial construction industry. Students will learn about basic hand and power tools and how to use those tools in constructing the basic components of a structure. Students must purchase their own books and tools. Admission is conditional and depends on the student’s ability to perform the essential functions identified for this program. A high school diploma or GED is not required; however, students are required to have specifically documented ability to benefit. (See page 19, Admission to Courses Not Creditable Toward an Associate Degree).
