Residential Construction Carpentry

This nationally recognized Residential Construction Academy (RCA) accredited instructional program, in conjunction with the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and the Home Builders Institute (HBI), prepares students in all phases of building construction including: site layout, footing and foundation construction, framing systems, exterior finishes, insulation, drywall, finish carpentry and cabinet installations, all with emphasis on residential home construction. Students also learn the proper use of hand and power tools, construction materials, estimating, blueprint reading, and construction safety. A full-scale student-built house is constructed as a project in which advanced level students bring all their skills together as a culminating activity. Students will work in teams and under a variety of real occupational conditions. Students completing this program will be prepared to begin entry-level employment in construction carpentry and related trade areas. Students will also have the technical skills to pursue an associate or baccalaureate degree in construction-related fields such as construction technology.
