Building & Construction
This hands-on building and construction programme is the first rung on the ladder of a great career that can really take you places.
Working in NMIT’s carpentry barn and enclosed construction yard, you’ll learn heaps of useful skills like making pre-framed walls, installing windows, hanging doors and much more. Develop your skills using hand and power tools, learn how to interpret plans and create drawings for building projects; and gain an insight into joinery manufacturing.
From here you can go into employment, a trades course at NMIT or further study at university. One day you could end up running your own company!
