Joinery
Do you like making things? Have you thought about a career in joinery? This hands-on joinery programme could be your first step of a great career that can take you places.
Working in NMIT’s carpentry and joinery barn based in Nelson, you’ll learn heaps of useful things like developing your skills in using hand and power tools; learn how to read plans; create drawings for your projects and to gain insight into joinery manufacture.
There will be a chance to design and build furniture while gaining a good knowledge of the health and safely requirements in the workplace.
From here you can go into employment, a trades course at NMIT or further study.
On completion of this course you will be able to:
- Calculate quantities and prepare an order, set out and construct timber furniture, and complete work operations.
- Demonstrate knowledge of, select, maintain, and use hand tools for BCATS projects.
- Identify, describe, select, maintain, and use portable power tools for the construction of BCATS projects.
Note: Some unit standards may change. Final information on the standards specific to your course will be available prior to starting your programme.
If circumstances change there could be mixed models of delivery e.g online, face to face one day per week or block options.
