The Building Trades program provides students with a solid foundation in residential building. Construction skills and techniques taught include: framing, insulation, roofing, drywall
hanging and finishing, deck building, window and door installation, and finish
trim work. Students learn and apply these skills in the classroom and in lab situations. Hand and power tool use, safety, teamwork, and employability
skills are emphasized. The Building Trades program is valuable
for students thinking of going into a construction field and
for others wanting to learn valuable life skills.
The Building Trades program is designed to prepare students for employment in the construction field and to teach valuable employability and life skills. When students have completed this class, they should be prepared to join the workforce as laborers, apprentices, and possibly tradespeople: and/or be prepared to further their education at the university, college or trade school level.
